It has been widely reported the in-demand striker would be available for a release clause of between £50million and £55million dependant upon the success of his current club, RB Leipzig, as long as it is triggered by the end of April.
But
Sport1 have now claimed his release clause is actually worth just €30m (£25m) plus performance-based bonuses in news which will only increase levels of demand.
Numerous clubs have been linked with Werner, who scored in the Champions League against
Tottenham last week and has 27 goals in 33 appearances this season.
