The poker has ended: According to the new coach of RB Leipzig, Ole Werner is unanimous. Werder Bremen browses a million sum for this.

A trainer engagement by Ole Werner at RB Leipzig is obviously in the way. As “Kicker” and “Bild” unanimously report, Werder Bremen in the transfer poker around Werner, who was still under contract until 2026, has given in. According to this, the Hanseates are said to have deviated from their original transfer claim of six million euros.

According to the reports, they have now been agreed on a sum of two to three million euros. Any bonus payments could still be added. The breakthrough in the talks is said to have been on Friday. The 37 -year -old Werner will sign a two -year contract promptly. The announcement could be made on the weekend.

Werder had separated from Werner at the end of May after he did not want to extend his contract with 2026 on the Weser. The coach has been responsible for the Bremen since November 2021. Previously, he had started his coaching career at Holstein Kiel in various functions.

In Leipzig, after the separation from Marco Rose, Zsolt Löw was in office as an interim coach at the end of March to the end of the season. In addition to Werner, CESC Fàbregas (Como) and Oliver Glasner (Crystal Palace) were previously under discussion for the head coach post. The Dane Jacob Neestrup from FC Copenhagen had also been traded as a possible new coach, before the 37-year-old Jaissle was recently considered an alternative to Werner. The RB training start is planned on July 14th.
