Woltemade debunks Premier League myth

A move from the Bundesliga to the Premier League is a well-travelled path. Just this summer, another raft of high-profile names made the swap. Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong and Hugo Ekitike joined Liverpool, Benjamin Sesko was sold to Manchester United, Xavi Simons to Tottenham. All for big sums.

But the one who has made his acclimatisation look most natural is Newcastle forward Nick Woltemade. In just seven short weeks, he has become the toast of the Toon, and rubbished the theory that players arriving from Germany require a 'transition period'.

The 23-year-old, unmissable at 6ft 6in, has not needed the caveats most have offered Wirtz and Sesko. He has just got on with it. On his Premier League bow he joined an elite, but small, group of compatriots - Jurgen Klinsmann and Ilkay Gundogan - in becoming the third German to score on his debut.
