Nick Woltemade has landed in Turin to finalise his loan move from Newcastle United to Juventus.
The German forward will leave on loan with no option or obligation to make the move permanent. It comes a year after Woltemade’s club-record £65million move from VfB Stuttgart.
On deadline day, transfer narrative expert Fabrizio Romano shared footage of Woltemade arriving in Turin prior to completing his loan move.
It comes after the Germany forward scored 11 goals in 51 appearances for Newcastle last season but was an unused substitute in Matthias Jaissle’s first Premier League match as head coach against Liverpool. The 24-year-old came off the bench to grab an assist for Yoane Wissa in Newcastle’s 2-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday but has been made available for a loan after falling down the pecking order in both the striker and No. 10 positions.
The arrival of Matias Fernandez-Pardo has paved the way for Woltemade’s temporary exit after just a year at St James’ Park. The 21-year-old Belgian has agreed a five-year deal at St James’ Park after completing his medical.
Both transfers are set to be officially confirmed later today.
