Stuttgart firm on keeping Woltemade despite reported Bayern agreement
VfB Stuttgart have been taken by surprise by reports suggesting their star striker Nick Woltemade has agreed personal terms on a move to Bayern Munich, according to Bild.
The German tabloid claims Stuttgart are 'upset' that Bayern held talks with Woltemade behind the scenes while the Swabians were simultaneously trying to extend the player's contract.

In an interview with Bild, Stuttgart's director of sport, Fabian Wohlgemuth, made it clear once again that the player is not for sale.
'The fact that others have noticed his development and that reports of interest from other clubs appear almost daily changes nothing about the fact that Nick's journey with us is far from over,' Wohlgemuth emphasized.
'We are firmly planning with Nick and want to benefit from his sporting qualities next year as well. There is no alternative plan,' he added.
With Woltemade contracted to the club until 2028 without a release clause, Stuttgart are in a strong negotiating position.
Recently, it was reported that it would take an offer of at least €60 million to make them reconsider their stance.
