The transfer of soccer coach Ole Werner from Werder Bremen to RB Leipzig is getting closer. According to dpa information, Werder and the Saxons have come very close in the tug-of-war over the transfer fee. The signing of Werner as successor to head coach Marco Rose, who was suspended in March, has not yet been finalized. However, negotiations are very advanced.
It remains to be seen when a final agreement will be reached. Kicker" and "Bild" also reported a breakthrough in the negotiations.
Werner was released by Werder after he informed the Bremen club that he did not want to extend his expiring contract. According to reports, Werder demanded a transfer fee of six million euros. Leipzig were not prepared to pay this.
