Newcastle Signs Woltemade From Stuttgart for Reported Club-Record Fee of $93M
Newcastle's £69 million signing of Nick Woltemade is set to fund Alexander Isak's move to Liverpool, with further midfield reinforcements planned, aiming to boost squad strength.
- On August 30, 2025, Newcastle United secured the signing of 23-year-old forward Nick Woltemade from Bundesliga club VfB Stuttgart for a record-breaking fee.

- Woltemade scored 12 Bundesliga goals last season, starred at the U21 Euros, and helped Stuttgart win the DFB-Pokal, making him a key attacking option.
- Manager Eddie Howe praised Woltemade's technical ability, strength, and potential, saying he fits their profile and they are delighted to finalize the signing quickly.
- Woltemade's arrival could enable Alexander Isak's transfer to Liverpool, while Newcastle aims to develop the new striker and strengthen their attack for the season.
