Nick Woltemade makes Juventus debut in Serie A draw against Milan

Nick Woltemade debuted for Juventus on September 6, 2026, entering as a 75th-minute substitute during a 1-1 Serie A draw against Milan at Allianz Stadium. The Newcastle loanee replaced Douglas Luiz as manager Luciano Spalletti adjusted to a more aggressive 4-2-4 tactical setup. Juventus trailed 1-0 at the time of the substitution and were struggling to generate meaningful opportunities against the Milan defense. While Woltemade struggled to win aerial duels or maintain possession in his limited minutes, his presence helped create late pressure that contributed to the team's eventual equalizer. Spalletti stated the need to further develop the German striker into a traditional target man capable of holding up play and creating space for teammates. The 24-year-old remains a work in progress for the Juventus coaching staff.
