The article appeared in the first version on July 11, 3:51 p.m. and was added to VfB boss Alexander Wehrle’s statements (3rd paragraph)
A lot has already been reported on the interest of FC Bayern in Nick Woltemade, at the end of the week the German record champion apparently presented VfB Stuttgart a first written offer for the attacker. As the “Bild” reported on Friday, this was 40 million plus 5 million euros in possible bonuses and went to the Swabians late Thursday evening. In the morning, however, the VfB bosses rejected it directly. Club boss Alexander Wehrle emphasized the point of view on Saturday not to let Woltemade go. However, he left a back door open.

The Roosted Retrosphere would already be a record in the history of the cup winner, which demands significantly more and rather a sum of EUR 80 million for the 23-year-old. Benjamin Pavard is currently the most expensive departure of Stuttgart, for whom the Munich 2019 had paid 35 million euros. Bayern also appear two more times in VfB’s top 5 sales. If Woltemade is committed, Stuttgart received its three highest income from the history from FCB.
Update July 13: As part of “750 years of Möglingen”, the community in which he grew up, Stuttgart’s CEO Wehrle also spoke about the Woltemade poker. “We don’t give him away. He will also play football with us in the coming season,” said the 50-year-old according to the “Stuttgarter Nachrichten”. Except that FC Bayern would “really make something extraordinary”. “Then we are all professionals enough to talk about it.” When asked by the moderator, Wehrle also confirmed that he did not want to personally meet for negotiations with Max Eberl and Co. Transfer inquiries received “by phone”. “And usually you meet, but I have categorically rejected it so far.”
Woltemade wants to go to FC Bayern – VfB Stuttgart rejects
According to reports, Woltemade absolutely wants to go to Bayern. Stuttgart, on the other hand, repeatedly announced that after just a year, the new international was not simply to be let. Most recently, sports board said Fabian Wohlgemuth: “We made a long-term agreement almost a year and a half ago with Nick. It has existed. That is why we assume that Nick will also play with us next season and can show his qualities.” His working paper is valid until 2028.
In order to negotiate this transfer more easily and personally, the Bayern bosses around Max Eberl would like to meet the Stuttgarters, but so far the club rejected. The newspaper therefore speculates and, due to the far apart ideas, that the poker could last for a long time. The Munich team are looking for a replacement for Thomas Müller, the serious injury to Jamal Musiala brought further pressure into this personnel. Woltemade had come to VfB in the last summer of Werder Bremen, since then he has booked 17 goals in 33 games and three templates and increased its market value from 4 million to 30 million euros.
