Liverpool linked striker Timo Werner has remained coy over his long term future at RB Leipzig, but has insisted that he is happy at the east German club.

The 21-year-old Germany international is seen as one of the most exciting young German forwards in the Bundesliga and played a key role in RB Leipzig finishing second in their first season in the German top tier.

Werner told SportBild: “So far my journey with Leipzig has been good and that’s why I am not thinking about the next two or three years.

“Of course I want to play for a big club, but we also have to take notice of RB Leipzig’s development and they can become a big club too – I am quite sure.”

While the striker stressed that he would not change clubs for just financial reasons, he remained non-committal about his future at RB Leipzig despite being happy at the club.

Asked if he will stay at RB Leipzig next season, Werner said: “You can never promise anything but as I said, I like it here at Leipzig and I am not one of those who will join another club for more money if they can stay at a club where they will develop better.

“I know what I want.”
