“When you come from the kind of success I had in Germany or with Chelse...” — Timo Werner Quote

“When you come from the kind of success I had in Germany or with Chelsea - playing nearly every game in the first season, winning the Champions League in 2021, scoring in the semi-final against Real Madrid, making a lot of goals. Then all this gets a little bit forgotten by the manager, it was not really fair.”

“At home when you are the normal Timo or Kai, you are not the superstar or the footballer, you can put the football away, put the stress away and talk about normal things.”

“I really associate very great successes with Chelsea - the greatest of my career. It will always be a special club for me.”

“Of course I'm proud of what I've done, but I'm interested in what's next. I want to be relevant now, in 2012. I've done my bit for the past. I've only ever been about what's next, really, and I'll be that way until I keel over.”

“I went to London and was excited to make the team, but to be honest, I was a bit dissatisfied with my performance there, and I'd really like to make up for that in Rio and get the best out of myself on the Olympic stage.”

“When my world record got broken in 1999, it hurt a little bit, to say the least. But I was in a leg brace at the time and I had just had knee surgery and I couldn't do anything about it.”
