Newcastle United is actively seeking to sell striker Nick Woltemade, who has struggled since joining from Stuttgart for a club-record £69 million last summer. After a disappointing first year with only 11 goals in 51 appearances, including eight in the Premier League, the club now views him as surplus to requirements. Reports indicate that Napoli has already contacted Newcastle regarding Woltemade's availability, while Como may also pursue a loan deal. The urgency to finalize a transfer comes as the transfer window approaches its closing date.
