Newcastle United loans Nick Woltemade to Juventus for the season

Summary

Newcastle United has sent forward Nick Woltemade to Juventus on a loan deal valued at £3.5 million. The German striker struggled to maintain form after a promising start to his tenure, recording eleven goals in all competitions but netting only twice since the turn of the year. Woltemade originally signed from VfB Stuttgart for £65 million during the 2025 summer window and quickly established himself as a starter due to squad injuries. Despite scoring in his first three home league matches, he eventually fell out of favor under new manager Matthias Jaissle. Following an underwhelming pre-season and a lackluster performance in the League Cup against West Brom, the club opted to move him to Italy. He remains under contract with Newcastle United and may return to the team in the future.
