Julian Nagelsmann has admitted RB Leipzig have no hope of keeping their main man Timo Werner next season, as Chelsea wait to confirm the signing.
The Blues have reportedly agreed a £53m deal to land the forward, beating a host of European giants to the 24-year-old's signature.
Werner will leave a huge void in Nagelsmann's team after he was poached from Stuttgart in 2016, banging in 92 goals in 156 games for the Bundesliga side.

The Bundesliga's youngest manager admits he can do nothing to keep him though, and will have to find the 25 goals Werner has contributed so far this season from elsewhere in 2020-21.
