Liverpool are reportedly yet to strike a deal with RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner, who is also in talks with Juventus and Inter Milan.

Liverpool reportedly have no deal in place to sign RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner when the transfer window reopens.

The Reds are understood to have made the 24-year-old their top summer target, and reports last week suggested that they had agreed terms to trigger his £52m release clause.

However, transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio claims that Juventus and Inter Milan are also in the running for his signature, pouring doubt over whether the Premier League leaders will move for the Germany international.

"I know that Timo Werner will leave RB Leipzig, for sure. His agents are moving to find a solution for him. They are talking to Juventus and Inter Milan, so they want him to change clubs," Di Marzio told Sky Sports News.

"They are probably talking to Liverpool because Liverpool have wanted him for a long time. I don't know whether he is the right player for Liverpool in this moment because in their forward department they probably don't need anything.

"[Roberto] Firmino, [Mohamed] Salah and [Sadio] Mane! So it's difficult to spend a lot of money for a player that is likely to stay on the bench. We will see, but at this time there is no real deal with Liverpool and Leipzig for Werner."

Werner has scored 27 goals and created 12 more in 36 games for Leipzig across all competitions this season.
