Newcastle United have secured the services of German midfielder Nick Woltemade, who transferred from VfB Stuttgart in a deal reported to be worth up to 90 million euros. This makes Woltemade's move the most expensive sale in VfB Stuttgart's history.
The transfer was officially announced in the morning, with Woltemade signing a long-term contract that will run until June 30, 2031. The club, however, did not provide details about the length of the contract at the official announcement.
Woltemade, who was not yet in the squad for the game against Leeds United, attended the match from the stands. He expressed his feelings about his move to Newcastle, stating that everyone at the club has made him feel welcome. The German midfielder views Newcastle as feeling like a family and considers his move to be a big step in his life.
In a statement issued by Newcastle United, Woltemade stated, "I am thrilled to have joined Newcastle United. The club has a rich history and a passionate fanbase, and I am excited to be a part of it. I cannot wait to get started and give everything for this great club."
Woltemade's debut for Newcastle United is likely to be on September 13th against Wolverhampton at home. Bayern Munich had also been interested in signing the midfielder, but Woltemade chose Newcastle as his new home.
The sporting director who negotiated the transfer contract with Woltemade is not explicitly mentioned in the available search results. Regardless, Woltemade's arrival at Newcastle United has certainly added a new dimension to the team's midfield and raised expectations among the fans.
