Borussia Dortmund are looking at Chelsea and Germany forward Timo Werner as a possible replacement for Erling Haaland, according to Sky Germany.

Per the report, Dortmund are yet to enter concrete negotiations with Chelsea, but the Bundesliga club were recently in an exchange with Werner's agent, Volker Struth, to arrange the signing of Niklas Süle, who is one of his other clients.

Chelsea aren't looking to force through a transfer by any means, but would be willing to talk.

However, it's doubtful that Dortmund would be able and willing to pay the money required to bring Werner to Signal Iduna Park, should he be interested in a move back to the Bundesliga.

Two years ago, Chelsea put €53 million on the table to sign Werner from RB Leipzig on a contract until 2025 worth €16 million per season in wages.
