Stuttgart coach Sebastian Hoeness has not minced words about the club's "risky" decision to sell star striker Nick Woltemade late in the summer window without securing a replacement. The decision to sell the forward late in the summer transfer window has resulted in a drop in quality, the coach argued. With top scorer Ermedin Demirovic now sidelined by injury, Hoeness says the task has become "significantly more challenging".
Former Newcastle winger Chris Waddle believes Bayern Munich are still sulking after missing out on the signing of Nick Woltemade. The 64-year-old says the German giants are showing 'a little bit of sour grapes' after the 23-year-old striker joined Newcastle in a record £69 million ($93m) deal despite a personal agreement to join Vincent Kompany's team.
Anthony Gordon has compared Nick Woltemade to England "quarterback" Harry Kane and explained how Newcastle's £69 million ($93m) frontman has positively impacted his game. Woltemade has exploded onto the scene at Newcastle with four goals in his first six appearances, three of which came in the span of just seven days against Arsenal, Union Saint-Gilloise, and Nottingham Forest before the international break.
Newcastle put forward a dominant display in their 4-0 win away win over Belgian champions Union Saint-Gilloise. Eddie Howe's side were ruthless in attack, with Anthony Elanga, Nick Woltemade and Anthony Gordon linking well in their first start together as a trio. Woltemade opened the scoring with a clever flick, before Gordon twice bagged from the spot with substitute Harvey Barnes adding the fourth.
Nick Woltemade’s massive £69 million move to Newcastle continues to divide opinion in Germany, with Julian Nagelsmann praising the striker’s start while warning he still has “steps to take.” The national coach’s remarks arrive amid fierce criticism from Bayern legend Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, who labelled Newcastle “idiots” for meeting Stuttgart’s lofty asking price.
Stuttgart have responded to statements made by Bayern Munich supervisory board member Karl-Heinz Rummenigge regarding the transfer of striker Nick Woltemade to Newcastle. On Monday, Rummenigge took a swipe at the Magpies and called them "idiots" for splashing a club-record £69 million ($93m) on the Germany international.
Newcastle were branded "idiots" for agreeing to pay £69 million ($93m) to sign Nick Woltemade from Stuttgart as former Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge sarcastically congratulated their German rivals for the sale. Bayern had many attempts to sign the forward rebuffed over the summer, only for the Magpies to swoop in to land him.
Newcastle striker Nick Woltemade has revealed a heated on-field exchange with Arsenal defender Gabriel after what he described as a high elbow to the face during their 2-1 defeat at St James' Park. Woltemade insists he is 'not the type of player to fall down' for fouls, highlighting frustration over dangerous challenges and sportsmanship in the Premier League.
Eddie Howe is putting his Newcastle players through post-game training sessions to bolster their attacking output, as the Magpies seek to replace the goalscoring prowess of Alexander Isak. With record-signing Nick Woltemade bagging just once in his first three appearances, and Yoanne Wissa out through injury, Newcastle's manager is hoping to get his whole team firing to kickstart their season.
Nick Woltemade has delivered a new twist in Newcastle's rivalry with Liverpool, as the German striker considers a player at Anfield to be "one of the best" that he has "ever played with". The star in question is Florian Wirtz, who now lines up on Merseyside alongside Alexander Isak - who caused quite a stir when leaving St James' Park in the summer of 2025.
Nick Woltemade has been discussing his living arrangement since completing a transfer to Newcastle, with the German striker being joined on Tyneside by one of his best friends. Neither has an issue with their shared accommodation as they remain single and ready to embrace an exciting new challenge with Premier League giants in the north of England.
That first international break of the season always comes at just the wrong time. With teams starting to get into the groove as they switch from pre-season to competitive action, and with the final new signings of the summer arriving on deadline day, that Premier League fans had to wait two weeks to see their teams in action was almost a travesty. Fortunately, that wait is now over.
Eddie Howe was delighted with Nick Woltemade's goalscoring debut after landing the striker to replace Alexander Isak. Handed the impossible task of stepping into the void left by £125 million ($170m) Isak, the 23-year-old German silenced any doubters with a thunderous debut goal in front of a raucous St James’ Park crowd.
Nick Woltemade's career on Tyneside got off to the best possible start, as the German striker scored the winner in Newcastle's 1-0 win over Wolves at St. James's Park. The 22-year-old spoke positively about the experience, and his new manager Eddie Howe, but also admitted "the Premier League is quite hard", revealing he was experiencing cramp during his debut.
Newcastle United's record summer signing Nick Woltemade has been labelled a "true gentleman" after a visit to the popular city restaurant Khai Khai. The German forward, who was linked with Bayern Munich for a large part of the summer transfer window, eventually swapped Stuttgart for the Magpies last month in a deal worth up to £69 million ($93m).
