Chelsea striker Timo Werner is again being linked with Manchester United today.

The Daily Mail says Ralf Rangnick's new sports psychologist at Manchester United, Sascha Lense, is the father-in-law to-be of Chelsea star - and rumoured Old Trafford target - Werner.

Rangnick, 63, kickstarted his stint at United with a 1-0 victory against Crystal Palace, and he has also begun to overhaul the club off the field after making two additions to his backroom staff.

Lense, joined RB Leipzig in 2015 and then worked heavily under United's new interim boss before Ralph Hasenhuttl's appointment. He has also been at Dynamo Dresden and Schalke in recent years.

And he has a famous future son-in-law, too, namely Blues ace Werner, adding a twist to a potential big-money transfer saga which may burst into life this winter.
