New Blues superstar Werner opens up and admits he is excited to begin Premier League career with Chelsea
Timo Werner is “excited” to begin his Premier League career at Chelsea.
Regarded as one of the finest young strikers in the game right now, Werner was linked with a whole host of clubs in the summer transfer window before we swooped in and offered him a move to Stamford Bridge.
A man who hit 95 goals in 159 appearances for Leipzig is expected to bang in the goals for us this coming season, and he has admitted he is excited for the upcoming season, he told the club website of his early experiences and ambition for the future: “I’m very excited. I can’t wait!
“I was training on my own for a while when I first signed, but I’ve been working with the whole team over the past week or so and it’s been great.
“It was strange at first [when I arrived] because you just want to work hard, meet all the team and get straight to it on the training field but I had to be patient.
“I’m very happy that the league starts in two weeks and I’m excited to test myself in the Premier League.”
He added: “It’s very strange to be playing in empty stadiums but now I think it has actually become quite normal, because we played the last 10 or so games without fans.
“Of course, we have to accept this but also you could really see the difference between the first half of the season with fans, and the second without. It’s a big change and it’s a different part of the sport that you have to get used to.
“With the fans in the stadium, there’s more passion and lots of emotions and that gives you more on the pitch. It gives you a push to beat the opposition and of course, we want the fans back. But for now, we have to play in a quiet stadium.
“Hopefully we will be able to have fans back in the stadium soon, because that’s what everybody wants. Maybe it won’t be there for the first few games but hopefully soon, because we want them with us.”
