Arsenal title winner Paul Merson is backing Tottenham's move for RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner.

Werner is set to sign for Spurs on-loan in the coming hours.

"The thing that Ange (Postecoglou) likes is pace, he loves pace," Merson told Sky Sports.

"I was a little harsh on him at Chelsea, but the thing is he's lightning quick. And it looks like he likes pace at Tottenham, buying the likes of Johnson. If he can time his runs right on a big pitch at Tottenham he will cause havoc.

"But he was offside so many times at Chelsea - for someone who it that quick."
