"They eventually landed on Woltemade, signed from Stuttgart in a club-record 69m deal, who hit the ground running with four goals in his first five games. The same cannot be said for Isak at Liverpool, who broke the British transfer record, but managed just two league goals before staring down a lengthy spell on the sidelines through injury, picked up in the course of scoring the second of those two goals."
"In a study by CIES Football Observatory, it has been suggested that Woltemade has overtaken Isak in terms of transfer value. The data firm calculates that the Newcastle man is worth 120.5m (104.5m) at current rates, with Isak some way behind with a valuation of 95m (82.5m). CIES produces these valuations through what they term a scientific statistical model that takes into account the age, position and contract length of the player, their performance, club-related metrics and overall market trends."
Nick Woltemade joined Newcastle from Stuttgart in a club-record 69m deal and scored four goals in his first five games. Alexander Isak completed a British-record move to Liverpool but managed two league goals before suffering an ankle and fibula fracture that required surgery and will keep him sidelined for months. CIES Football Observatory values Woltemade at 120.5m (104.5m) and Isak at 95m (82.5m). CIES calculates valuations using a statistical model that includes age, position, contract length, individual performance, club-related metrics and overall market trends. Liverpool also signed Hugo Ekitike, complicating Newcastle's transfer plans.
