The two Premier League teams, MU and Newcastle are about to enter a transfer battle to compete with a striker other than the target Benjamin Sesko, when targeting Nick Woltemade of Stuttgart.
Coach Ruben Amorim needs to strengthen Man United after their worst campaign in the past 30 years last season – with Benjamin Sesko (RB Leipzig) and Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa) both on the shortlist of the Red Devils.
Meanwhile, coach Eddie Howie is planning for life without Alexander Isak, after the Swedish player expressed his desire to leave. Liverpool is still the brightest candidate to sign a contract with Isak, the player is priced at £ 150 million.
The priority of MU and especially Newcastle now is looking for a striker. Both the giants of the Premier League have begun to negotiate to recruit £ 70 million players, Sesko of RB Leipzig. Newcastle is ready to meet all the requirements of Sesko and down the money immediately, but the Slovenian striker just wants to go to MU, the team is having difficulty in meeting the transfer fee too big.
In parallel with the negotiation of the Woltemade recruitment contract, both Newcastle and MU are said to have another backup plan called Stuttemade's Woltemade. This promising striker was in the sights of Bayern Munich throughout the summer, but the £ 65.5 million transfer deal of Luis Diazz from Liverpool helped MU and Newcastle have the opportunity to own the German U21 star when the Bundesliga champion can withdraw from the race.
Woltemade is one of the most promising players in Europe, a player who won the title of European U21 scorer in June with 6 goals. The player born in 2002 advanced through the ranks at Bremen Academy and often played for this team at many different young levels but could not squeeze into the first team.
Before the 2024/25 season, Woltemade moved to Stuttgart and signed a 4 -year contract. He ended his first season with 17 goals scored in all competitions, including a goal in the final of the National Cup, the match that Stuttgart won.
