Nick Woltemade Faces Immediate Challenge from New Juventus Coach After Move from Newcastle
German international striker Nick Woltemade has joined Juventus Turin on a season-long loan from Newcastle United, seeking to revive his career after a difficult year in the Premier League. The 24-year-old, who moved to Newcastle from VfB Stuttgart for a reported €90 million in summer 2025, struggled for playing time and form, managing only 11 goals in 53 appearances.
