Isak goes on strike; Newcastle, desperate and confused, spends over €80 million in the Bundesliga to buy a forward valued at only €30 million.

Last season’s Premier League Silver Boot winner, Isak, was resolute about joining Liverpool, going so far as to strike and make public declarations. This disrupted Newcastle’s plans for competing in both the Premier League and Champions League this season, as the squad lacked a genuine striker. For the first two league matches, winger Gordon was forced to fill in as striker with unsatisfactory tactical outcomes, causing Newcastle to urgently seek a new striker and resulting in somewhat reckless moves by the team.

According to the latest report from Italian transfer expert Romano, Newcastle has signed the 23-year-old German forward from Stuttgart.Nick Woltemade,with a transfer fee exceeding €80 million plus add-ons, while the player’s market value on Transfermarkt is only €30 million.

Romano states that Newcastle’s offer was irresistible for Stuttgart, and an agreement has been reached. The player will travel to the UK within 24 hours for a medical exam, with travel arrangements currently being negotiated. On the player’s side, Woltemade has agreed to a long-term contract with Newcastle and will replace Isak as the main striker.

Stuttgart made a huge profit; last summer they signed Woltemade from Werder Bremen on a free transfer when his value was just €4 million. After one season, his worth skyrocketed to €30 million, and now he’s sold to Newcastle for over €80 million plus add-ons.

The 23-year-old Woltemade stands 1.98 meters tall, is right-footed, and primarily plays as a striker. His contract with Stuttgart runs until 2028. Last season, he appeared 33 times in all competitions for Stuttgart, starting 22 matches, totaling 2039 minutes on the field, scoring 17 goals and providing 3 assists, demonstrating high efficiency.
