Both on and off the field, Timo Werner has swiftly become a valuable member of Tottenham Hotspur. The German winger now has a playful moniker according to his colleague Guglielmo Vicario.
When Spurs announced that Werner had joined on a six-month loan from RB Leipzig during the January transfer window, it was a shocking move.
Rumor has it that the Lilywhites have the option to buy out the other party for £15 million, which would make the swap permanent (BILD).
And there are a lot of rumblings that they intend to do just that, particularly if Spurs make the Champions League this year (Football Insider).

Already an integral part of Ange Postecoglou’s team, Werner has contributed in 11 games so far, scoring twice and setting up three more goals (Transfermarkt).
Still engaged from the weekend, this time with a hazardous cross into the Nottingham Forest box that, when Forest defender Murillo mishandled the ball, found its way into the back of the goal.
The Italian moniker of Timo Werner
Werner praised the team’s “excellent performance” on Instagram after the game, praising the goals scored by Pedro Porro and Micky van de Ven in particular.

Spurs goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario was one of several who responded to the article in the comments area. To which the Italian said, “Yes, gnocchi, come on.”
In Italian, gnocchi may imply both “goof” and “idiot,” but most of us would associate it with the pasta dish. The word may also mean “handsome,” although Vicario may have had another meaning in mind when he used it.

It’s remarkable how fast Werner has settled in at Spurs; he’s obviously well-liked by his teammates. Anyway, he has won me over, and I would be more than delighted if we could hang on to him indefinitely.
