ON APPLE & GOOGLE PLAYWoltemade started well when he joined Newcastle from Stuttgart in the summer, and he had been on the radar of big clubs like Bayern Munich prior to his move to the Premier League.Still, there’s no doubt that Woltemade’s recent form has dipped quite considerably, with the 24-year-old on an awful run of just one goal in his last 21 games in all competitions.It seems, however, that Germany manager Julian Nagelsmann is still giving Woltemade his backing, according to the Shields Gazette.Nick Woltemade’s World Cup hopes given a boostWoltemade still seems to be in Germany’s plans as Nagelsmann is expected to name him in his latest squad, which will be confirmed later today,That’s a big boost for Woltemade ahead of the 2026 World Cup, where his country will be one of the favourites to win the competition.Newcastle fans will surely be surprised that Woltemade has managed to keep himself in contention, though, after such a dry spell in front of goal for Eddie Howe’s side in recent times.If Woltemade can’t turn his form around quickly, there’s surely still a big risk that he’ll ultimately miss out on the summer trip to North America.More Stories / Latest News“I can confirm” – Fabrizio Romano drops major Liverpool update that will impact transfer plansMar 19 2026, 10:56Aston Villa have told playmaker he can leave the club in the summerMar 19 2026, 10:43Nick Woltemade decision leaked following Newcastle United issueMar 19 2026, 10:34It will also be interesting to see what happens with the Germany international’s situation in the summer transfer window, as Bundesliga clubs might still be keen on him even if it hasn’t quite happened for him in English football so far.One imagines NUFC would also be open to letting Woltemade go unless they see a huge improvement from him in their next few games.The post Nick Woltemade decision leaked following Newcastle United issue appeared first on CaughtOffside.
