Following the transfer, the German forward has aimed a cheeky dig at the Blues tactician. Reportedly, all wasn't well between Timo Werner and Thomas Tuchel during their time together at Chelsea. The striker was clearly not in the manager's plans, which was evident last season with Tuchel preferring to deploy Kai Havertz as a false-nine instead of giving Werner a chance to lead the attack.

The striker went on to admit that he didn't fit into Thomas Tuchel's system at Chelsea. He, however, insisted that his time at the club was a success while promising that he'll stay in touch with his former teammates in London. “I think the coach’s system of play didn’t suit me perfectly," Timo Werner continued. "That’s why it was clear to me that I wanted to take a new step. I’m at an age where I want to play as much as I can. “I really associate very great successes with Chelsea – the greatest of my career. It will always be a special club for me. I will also stay in touch with many of the players from the team." How is Thomas Tuchel coping at Chelsea following Timo Werner s departure The striker is back in the Bundesliga.
