LONDON (Reuters) - If Tottenham Hotspur loan signing Timo Werner has even half the impact of the club's last German striker then his arrival this week could prove a pivotal moment in the club's season.

Only six German-born players have played for Tottenham and while Steffen Freund and Christian Ziege were both popular with the fans, Juergen Klinsmann enjoyed cult status.
