Liverpool's loyalty to Divock Origi prevented them from signing "brilliant" Timo Werner from RB Leipzig, according to Michael Owen.
Werner was heavily linked with a move to Liverpool earlier this year, and he fueled transfer speculation by publicly expressing his belief that he would be a good fit for Jurgen Klopp's system at Anfield.
The highly-rated Germany international was tipped to make his way to Merseyside this summer, but Chelsea stole a march on their Premier League rivals.
