Woltemade: The New 'Costa' for Atlético?
Atlético de Madrid has their sights set on Nick Woltemade, a German striker who has sparked the interest of the coaching staff.
Following his debut with the German national team in the Nations League semi-final against Portugal, where he played 60 minutes alongside figures such as Kimmich, Wirtz and Goretzka, the young attacker has left a very good impression at the Metropolitano.
His height of 1.98 meters and his agility make him a player to watch, gaining confidence and solidity during the match. Although opportunities to shine were scarce, he knew how to take advantage of spaces in attack, reminiscent of a Diego Costa with more technique.
While Liverpool has also shown interest, Atlético seems to be in the lead in the race to sign this promising striker. The club has already started contacts to negotiate his possible incorporation.
Woltemade, with a market value of 17 million, could be the ‘Costa’ of the future for Atlético, a striker who transforms balls that come to him from behind into goals. Cholo Simeone seeks to revive the claw and competitive spirit of that champion Atlético and Woltemade fits that profile.
