It is no secret that Bayern Munich really wanted to bring in former VfB Stuttgart striker Nick Woltemade this summer. However, the Bavarians did not want the attacker enough to pay the €75 million put up by Newcastle United.
Now that the dust has settled, Nick Woltemade confirmed that Uli Hoeneß called him during the recruitment period.
“Uli Hoeneß is a very well-known person. The conversations with him were pleasant; he gave me a very good feeling. But now I’m happy to be in Newcastle,” Woltemade
told Sport Bild journalist Julian Agardi (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Woltemade will now have to make his mark with the Magpies, while Bayern Munich will have to keep its fingers crossed that Harry Kane will want to hang out in Bavaria at least until the end of his contract in 2027.
Bayern Munich will host Werder Bremen in a Bundesliga match that — on paper — looks a little lopsided.
Okay, a lot lopsided.
The Bavarians are scorching hot and Werder Bremen has a slew of injuries, which makes for what could be a very tough challenge against a Bayern Munich team than can just wear down the opposition.
Let’s get into it — this is what we have on tap for this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works — Preview Show:
