Scouting Report & Player Insights
Nick Woltemade is a towering German centre-forward whose blend of aerial power, close control, and clever hold-up play sets him apart from the archetypal target man.

His game centres on dropping into pockets to link play, shielding the ball with his imposing frame, and finishing chances with either foot. Newcastle will look to him to translate his Bundesliga form into consistent Premier League output.
Broke into the Germany national team off the back of a strong 2024-25 season with Stuttgart.
Joined Newcastle United in a big-money transfer in the summer of 2025.
