   ​Report: Newcastle star tracked by Bundesliga giantsNick Woltemade, Bayern Munich and Newcastle: Why Harry Kane Successor Talk Will Not Go AwayThere is something faintly familiar about this sort of story, a talented forward, an awkward start, a loan move that raises more questions than it answers, and one of Europe’s grandest clubs still circling in the background. According to TALKSPORT, Bayern Munich remain firmly interested in Nick Woltemade, even after a difficult spell at Newcastle and a stuttering beginning to life at Juventus.The idea is a striking one. Harry Kane may still be tearing through records in Germany, and his start at Bayern has reinforced his class, but even the greatest forwards drift towards the later chapters of their careers. That is where Woltemade enters the frame, as a possible long-term answer for a club already thinking beyond the present.Photo: IMAGOBayern Munich interest still feels significantAndy Brassell’s comments to talkSPORT offered the clearest indication yet that Bayern Munich have not shelved their admiration. “I still think Woltemade will end up at Bayern at some point,” he said. “They were convinced he would go there before Newcastle and he’s had a difficult start at Juventus as well… quite a messy situation.”That matters because elite clubs do not easily forget players they have identified early. Bayern’s recruitment has long been shaped by patience as much as power, and if they truly believed Woltemade fitted their future before his move to Newcastle, a bruising year is unlikely to erase that view.Nick Woltemade struggles have changed the moodAt Newcastle, Woltemade’s first season was mixed. Eight Premier League goals is not a disastrous return, especially for a player adjusting to a new division and a demanding environment. Yet the drop-off after the turn of the year was impossible to ignore, with only two further league goals before the campaign closed.That loss of momentum seems to have shaped everything that followed. His loan move to Juventus has so far offered little immediate relief, with only brief substitute outings and no goal to settle him. Brassell painted a bleak picture of Juve’s attacking issues when he said, “They’re trying to reform the front part of their team and they’ve ended up with this front pairing of him and Randal Kolo Muani. They were really out of nick in the back end of last season. It’s the blind guiding the blind.”There is harshness in that judgement, but also a measure of truth. Confidence for strikers is precious, and Woltemade looks like a player still trying to find his footing.Harry Kane succession plan may suit all sidesFor Bayern Munich, this may be the point where opportunity begins to open up. Brassell suggested exactly that when he added, “I think Bayern will be looking at that and thinking, ‘We could get this guy we really wanted for maybe pennies on the pound at some point in the future.” If that proves accurate, then Newcast
