Chelsea flop Timo Werner struck a stunning long-range strike just 36 minutes into his RB Leipzig return on Saturday. On receiving a pass from Benjamin Henrichs, Werner took a touch before unleashing a 30-yard stunner that flew beyond Koln goalkeeper Marvin Schwabe's despairing dive. Here's the video of Werner's long-range piledriver: ESPN FC@ESPNFCIt only took Timo Werner 36 minutes to score on his RB Leipzig return! 268353280It only took Timo Werner 36 minutes to score on his RB Leipzig return! https://t.co/PoSpkqiHJm It was the first goal of his second Leipzig debut since he completed a move back from Chelsea. Werner had joined the Blues on a staggering €50 million transfer from the Red Bulls in 2020. However, things didn't quite work out for him, although he won the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup titles there. The German struggled to replicate his Leipzig form in Chelsea colours, netting only 23 goals in 89 appearances across competitions, including only ten in the Premier League in 56 games. Werner was uncharacteristically wasteful, missing a host of sitters throughout his two years in west London and also saw numerous goals ruled out by VAR.

Werner returned to Leipzig for £25.3 million, having first broke into their first team in the 2016-17 season following his arrival from Stuttgart. He struck 21 league goals in 31 games in his first season and didn't look back. During his first stint at the club, Werner struck 95 goals in 159 games and contributed 40 assists. Now in his first game back at the club, the striker is already off the mark.
