"It's demanding but I want us to go there with the following thoughts - we need only three victories to win the most valuable trophy in club football."
Werner left Leipzig as their all-time top scorer having broken the record when he took his tally to 95 for the club with his brace on Saturday.
Only Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski scored more than Werner's 28 goals in the Bundesliga this term and he will now look to transform that form to Chelsea, with the backing of the club and coach he is leaving.
Asked about any goodbye message the team delivered to Werner, Nagelsmann added: "Our sporting director Markus Krosche said some words in front of the team.
"I also said goodbye to him before and told him some things, but they stay private.
"It's easy to say that he leaves a huge gap when you look at his numbers, but also as a human because he has the heart in the right place.

"He has a lot of friends here in Leipzig and felt very comfortable. I wish him all the best in London and hope that he'll have similar numbers in four years as well."
Werner was delighted to sign off by grabbing the club record and admitted he will depart Leipzig with fond memories.
"Firstly, it makes me really happy that we won our last game of the season," he said.
"We qualified for the Champions League and ended the season on a high.
"The fact that I am the record goalscorer for Leipzig makes me really proud. I will miss the club and the city."
