‘I’m Happy’ - Nick Woltemade Reveals Why He Left Newcastle United After £64m Struggle
The 24-year-old seeks a fresh start after scoring 11 goals in 53 appearances for Newcastle United, club officials said.
- Newcastle United forward Nick Woltemade has completed a season-long loan move to Serie A side Juventus, aiming to reignite his career in Italy.
- His departure follows a difficult spell at Newcastle, where he struggled to adapt to Matthias Jaissle's high-intensity system; the signing of Matias Fernandez-Pardo for £51 million cleared the path for his exit.
- Woltemade, Newcastle's record signing at £64 million, featured 53 times in all competitions and scored 11 goals since arriving from VfB Stuttgart last summer.
- Former Newcastle United midfielder Dietmar Hamann condemned the move, telling Sky in Germany he "was surprised" and believed Borussia Dortmund would have been a better fit.
- Expressing pride in joining the "biggest club in Italy," Woltemade noted his technique and intelligence align with his new team and he intends to help the squad win.
