Catch Him If You Can: How Timo Werner Became Germany's Most Wanted Player

RB Leipzig's home game against Freiburg on Saturday is likely to attract more interest than usual, and not just because it will be among the first football matches to be broadcast live around the world after two months of stasis in Europe's five major leagues.

With Leipzig forward Timo Werner reportedly inching closer to a move to Liverpool by the day, Freiburg's trip to Red Bull Arena will be an opportunity for fans of the European champions—and his other reported suitors—to take a closer look at him.

Having found the net 27 times in all competitions this term, Werner is already enjoying his most prolific season.
