Photo: Nasdaq hopes the international player can play in the game, Walter Mad did not inform him before transferring to Newcastle
Nick Waltermad (23 years old) transfer to Newcastle is one of the main topics at the end of the transfer window, and Biography revealed the details.
The media pointed out that the striker had previously reached a personal agreement with Bayern for several weeks and was determined to transfer to the German record champion. But the two clubs failed to agree on the transfer fee. Eventually, he turned to the north of England to join Newcastle.
During this transfer tug-of-war, German national team coach Julian Nagelsmann (38 years old) revealed that he had contacted Walter Mad. After Bayern's German Super Cup against Stuttgart (2-1) in mid-August, Nasdaq, who watched the game, said in an interview: "We talked about this because I hope he can participate in more games. All potential internationals should get as much playing time as possible before the World Cup."
However, according to the new report by Bild, Walter Mad did not communicate with Nasdaq before transferring to Newcastle.
According to Bild, the English club officially contacted Stuttgart for the first time last Wednesday. Just one day later, the deal was finalized during the European draw-up meeting in Monaco.
Waltermad flew to England on Thursday evening. The transfer on Saturday was officially announced, and the striker watched the new teammates draw with Leeds United 0-0 in the stands that night.
On Monday, Waltermad went directly to the German national team to report. Now he is preparing for the World Cup qualifiers with the national team against Slovakia and Northern Ireland. At this latest, Nagelsmann should have talked to him about the transfer.
The German coach has clarified his core concern at the previous week's call press conference: "Players must be able to play. I'm not satisfied with some transfers this summer: If a player's playing time suddenly drops from 100% to 15%, it will be of no use to me as the head coach of the national team."
