Eventually, the relationship between Woltemade and VfB Stuttgart became so strained that he moved on to Newcastle United.

Now, Woltemade might have the chance to leave Newcastle, but Bayern Munich might not be interested: Bayern have not revived their interest in Nick Woltemade, amid his complicated situation at Newcastle. He’s currently not a topic for the club, not even if he would be available on loan. Bayern have other plans for this summer.

Right now, the timing is off for a Woltemade move, but that does not mean Bayern Munich would not consider it in a year or two. With Harry Kane expected to re-up and a potentially crowded attacking group, Woltemade likely is not in the cards for the 2026/27 season. United believes it can keep Fernandes (ESPN) Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes has been linked with a move away from the club, but the Red Devils think they will be able to hold on to him: Manchester United chiefs believe they will do enough to prevent Bruno Fernandes pursuing an exit this summer, so long as they confirm qualification for the UEFA Champions League, according to the Daily Mirror.

Senior figures are reportedly confident about keeping the club captain, who has one year left on his contract with the option of another year. Fernandes was linked with a transfer to the Saudi Pro League last summer, while he has since outlined his desire to play in Spain or Italy if he leaves Old Trafford. United need two points from their remaining games to secure Champions League qualification, which would secure a return to the competition for the first time since 2023/24.
