Howe: New boy can lead line for United

The Journal

|

September 27, 2025

EDDIE Howe has insisted £69million man Nick Woltemade can handle the heat playing as a No.9 for Newcastle United - and will throw the German star in to lead the line against Arsenal tomorrow despite teething problems.

- LEE RYDER Chief Newcastle United writer lee.ryder@reachplc.com

Howe's frontline has undergone major surgery since last season with Alexander Isak sold to Liverpool for £130m and Callum Wilson snubbing a pay as you play deal on Tyneside to sign for West Ham.

The German international, signed from Stuttgart, got off to a flying start when heading home against Wolves two weeks ago but struggled to develop much telepathy in the drab 0-0 draw at Bournemouth and ended the game pointing to his feet for more service on the South Coast, before being hooked.
