Newcastle United striker Nick Woltemade could leave the club to join Juventus, with Manchester United and Arsenal potentially having an impact on a deal. Woltemade's future at St James' Park has been the subject of speculation for some time, and the striker is now being heavily linked with a move to Italy.
Woltemade's Newcastle career so far
United signed Woltemade from Stuttgart last summer in a deal worth £69million, and the Germany international has gone on to score 11 goals for the club over the last 12 months. This summer has seen Woltemade linked with a move away from Newcastle, with a loan deal potentially on the cards, and there has now been a fresh update on the striker's future.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has reported that Juventus have made an approach to Newcastle about a potential deal for Woltemade, which would be on a season-long loan. The report claims that Woltemade is one of two players being considered by Juventus, along with Manchester United striker Joshua Zirkzee.
Juventus' striker search
It has been reported that Juventus are looking to sign a new striker as they prepare for the potential departure of Jonathan David, who has been linked with a move to Atletico Madrid. The Canada international has been listed as a potential replacement for Julian Alvarez, who has been mentioned as a target for Arsenal and Barcelona this summer, with it now looking possible that the Argentina international could leave the Spanish capital before Tuesday's deadline.
David has previously been linked with a move to Newcastle during his time at Lille, where he eventually left to sign for Juventus 12 months ago on a free transfer. In the case of Zirkzee, who has been heavily linked with a move away from Manchester United this summer, the Netherlands international has also been linked with both Juventus and Atletico, which could be affected by Woltemade's possible departure.
Newcastle's busy transfer window
Newcastle have had a busy transfer window this summer with several notable departures, as well as new signings. Anthony Gordon, Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro Tonali have all left the Magpies this summer, while Nico Gonzalez, Bazoumana Toure, Amar Dedic, Aladji Bamba, Lukas Hornicek, Sean Steur and Ewen Jaouen have all moved to Tyneside.
