Woltemade surprises

From national hero to economy class passenger, it was Nick Woltemade's humble journey after scoring to help Germany beat Northern Ireland 1-0 in a 2026 World Cup qualifier on October 14.

Woltemade chose a simple lifestyle.

According to The Sun , the 1.98m tall striker returned to England on an EasyJet flight for only £75, departing from Belfast to Newcastle the next morning (October 15). On that 45-minute flight, he happened to sit next to defender Dan Ballard - the opponent he had faced the day before. Woltemade wore a cap and a hoodie, sitting quietly in the front row. "Woltemade's image was surprisingly simple," The Sun wrote.

After being criticised for failing to score in his first five games for Germany, Woltemade exploded at the right time. His first goal for "Die Mannschaft" relieved the pressure and opened a new journey for Woltemade. "I'm really happy. Maybe I'm more suited to scoring in western Europe," he joked to BBC Sport .

Since joining Newcastle for a record fee of £69 million from Stuttgart, Woltemade has proven his worth by scoring 4 goals in the last 5 matches for both club and country. The head coach of the German national team admitted that he is an indispensable piece in the journey to win a ticket to the 2026 World Cup, while in England, Newcastle fans have almost forgotten Alexander Isak.

Meanwhile, in Germany, Stuttgart are still mourning the loss. Coach Sebastian Hoeness called the sale of Woltemade a bitter loss and admitted the team is struggling to find a replacement.

Two months after arriving in the Premier League, Woltemade has not only taken off in his career but also made the whole of England admire him for his simple style.
