RB Leipzig CEO Oliver Mintzlaff claims he is 'deeply relaxed' about Timo Werner despite ongoing speculation that the 24-year-old could leave the club this summer.

"I'm deeply relaxed about Werner. He hasn't signalled yet that he wants to leave beyond the season, and he doesn't have to. He has a contract until 2023," Mintzlaff told Sky.

So far, no club have approached RB Leipzig with an offer for the German international, Mintzlaff explained.

In any case, 'Die Roten Bullen' have no intention of selling their players "significantly below value," he added.

Werner's contract includes a buyout clause, which would allow him to leave for €55-60 million at the end of the season.
