Atlético de Madrid has begun to make moves to strengthen their attack for the upcoming season, and one of the names that has emerged strongly on their agenda is the young German forward Nick Woltemade. As confirmed by the newspaper Bild, the Madrid club has already initiated the first contacts with Stuttgart to firsthand understand the player's contractual situation.

Woltemade, 23 years old and 1.98 meters tall, has been one of the big revelations in the Bundesliga. His versatility allows him to play as an attacking midfielder or forward, and his performance this season has been outstanding: 17 goals and 3 assists in 33 matches. In addition to this, he recently won the Cup title with Stuttgart, further raising his profile in German football.

Seeking a Replacement for Ángel Correa

Atlético reportedly approached the German club last Sunday, showing interest in a possible transfer deal during the upcoming summer. The player's value is estimated between 15 and 20 million euros, a sum that fits within the economic margins of the colchonero team. Furthermore, his current salary is around 1.5 million euros per year, a figure also manageable for Atlético.

The sports management of Atlético sees Woltemade as an interesting option if Ángel Correa eventually decides to move on. Nevertheless, the forward is also being closely monitored by other major clubs like Bayern Munich, Everton, or Brighton. His recent call-up to the senior German national team for the League of Nations Final Four further reinforces his potential.
