According to Sky Sport Germany, several teams are in advanced discussions with Timo Werner's entourage, but David Beckham's Inter Miami is in the leading position to sign him as soon as the winter transfer window. Werner is under contract until 2026, but his club will not oppose a departure, and the former Chelsea player could join Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez in MLS.

Recent reports suggested that Lionel Messi had personally requested that Inter Miami sign Timo Werner, and a German outlet supports the claim that discussions with David Beckham's franchise have taken place. However, MLS transfer insider Tom Bogert of The Athletic reports that claims of Werner holding serious talks with Miami are inaccurate. Bogert also reports that one source insisted that Werner is not an option for the club.

According to reports in Germany, Inter Miami officials have initiated negotiations with the representatives of RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner concerning a winter transfer. Sky Sport in Germany claims that formal contact has been made between Miami and Werner's representatives. The latest update states the 29-year-old is keen to leave Leipzig in January and would consider a move to Miami. Sky journalist Florian Plettenberg adds that Werner is now expected to move to MLS when the January transfer window opens. To sign Werner immediately, Miami will have to negotiate an agreement with the Bundesliga side. Leipzig can demand a fee for his services but would likely consider low offers, as he is unwanted and his contract runs until the summer of 2026. Reports from the summer valued Werner at €4 million. Leipzig’s desire to sell the player is primarily due to financial concerns. He is reported to be the club's top earner with an annual salary of €10 million and has had just one minute of action this season. While European clubs would likely look to sign him on a free transfer next summer, Miami could provide an immediate transfer. Werner is unlikely to demand such a high salary in MLS but could still become one of the league’s top-paid players.

Journalist Florian Plettenberg reported that a club is considering Leipzig player Timo Werner. Plettenberg stated that both parties are negotiating and that the forward could arrive in the next winter transfer window to be Leo Messi's new attacking partner.

According to a report from BILD, out-of-favor RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner is pushing for a move to Inter Miami. The German international reportedly considers Miami a dream destination, with an ambition to play alongside Lionel Messi being a driving factor. His current salary would require a Designated Player contract, and the club could accommodate a player like him in 2026.
