5 Players Barcelona Should Sign This Summer

#2 Timo Werner

Timo Werner has been in excellent form

A long-term replacement for the ageing Luis Suarez has to be found and Barcelona need to look no further than Germany's first-choice striker for the FIFA World Cup 2018, Timo Werner.

Timo Werner is all of 22 years old and he has been one of the most prolific goalscorers in the Bundesliga. Tipped to be the next Miroslav Klose, Joachim Low gave the RB Leipzig striker his first international call up in 2017 in a friendly versus England.

Subsequently, Low took Werner to the Confederations Cup in which he ended up being the joint-top scorer. Timo Werner runs the length of the pitch at a blinding pace and has been aptly nicknamed 'Turbo Timo'.

This is what he himself had to speak about his pace,

''The quickest players just know how to do it automatically. I like to knock the ball three or four meters ahead of me when I'm on the counter or have space in front of me, that way I can increase the distance between a defender and myself.''

Timo has 22 goals and 7 assists to his name across all competitions this season with RB Leipzig. Those are staggering numbers for a 22-year-old. Timo Werner is almost certain to be Germany's hitman for a good decade and there is no reason why Barcelona should go all out if they're looking to sign a worthy replacement for Luis freaking Suarez.
