Timo Werner - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Expected to play Saturday Werner did the necessary for his visa Tuesday in Berlin and is expected to be an option for Saturday's clash against Atlanta United, according to Leipziger Volkszeitung.

Impact Werner was unavailable for Saturday's season opener against Sporting Kansas City while waiting on his work visa, but that hurdle now appears to be cleared after the former Leipzig star finalized his paperwork in Berlin on Tuesday. With the off-field situation resolved, the new San Jose striker is trending toward making his debut and could log his first minutes for the club in Saturday's matchup against Atlanta United.

Impact Werner could not play Saturday as he still waits to gain his working visa. He signed from RB Leipzig in late January, expecting to be a huge plus in the attack, given his resume of playing for top European teams like Chelsea, Tottenham and Leipzig.

Completes MLS move Werner has left RB Leipzig to join San Jose Earthquakes in the MLS, his former club announced Thursday.

Impact Werner struggled to get things going and was limited to just 13 minutes off the bench across three Bundesliga appearances in 2025-26. He should be a regular starter for San Jose right away, as he joins the club as a Designated Player, and this seems like the perfect opportunity for Werner to get his career back on track. He hasn't scored a goal in a competitive match since the 2023/24 season when he was playing for Tottenham Hotspur. Werner's deal with the Earthquakes goes until the end of the 2027/28 MLS season.

Impact Werner has been dealing with a strain but is back available for Leipzig since he is in the starting squad for Wednesday's friendly against FK Dukla Praha.
