LOVING life at Newcastle! | Nick Woltemade press conference

©️UEFA 2025 Newcastle star striker Nick Woltemade opens up on his start to life in England and confesses to Peter Crouch comparisons earlier in his career. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 Intro Really nice. I'm really excited to come back to Germany. To come to your home country is really good even though I am really happy in Newcastle. Leverkusen? It will be a tough game to be honest. This summer they had a lot of new players but the last two years they have been really good. They play such good football and to be honest they have had a lot of changes, a new manager and I am excited to see what comes tomorrow. Life at Newcastle?

This is what Newcastle has given me a lot even if I haven't touched the ball for a few minutes because my team-mates are so good. Bayern jibes? To be honest I don't care. I don't read it, I focus on myself and at the end I am not deciding what someone is paying for me. I am happy Newcastle has paid this for me because I am really happy in Newcastle. I didn't have so many expectations. I had good talks with the manager and the club and I had a good feeling about it. My start has been really well but I think it is because the club welcomed me so good. They talked a lot with me, the players gave me a good feeling and I had a feeling that I felt like I was already longer there. Peter Crouch comparisons?
