""Right now he's super important because we've got a few players out injured in that position and because he's a very good player,""
""He's in high demand for us right now because he's doing well, he's important in pressing, in holding onto the ball and in scoring goals. "He's scored several times already. He's popular with the fans. He feels comfortable in the city [Newcastle]. Right now the situation is good for Nick and good for us too.""

Nick Woltemade has started strongly at Newcastle United, scoring four goals in eight Premier League matches since his move from Stuttgart. His form places him as Germany's primary option up front amid absences. Several forwards — Kai Havertz, Jamal Musiala, Niclas Fullkrug and Tim Kleindienst — are injured, and Karim Adeyemi is suspended. Defensive absences include Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Nico Schlotterbeck and Antonio Rudiger, while captain Joshua Kimmich is sidelined with an ankle injury. Jonathan Tah will assume captaincy in Kimmich's absence. Woltemade's pressing, ball retention and goal-scoring have made him popular with fans and comfortable in Newcastle.
