Stuttgart raise asking price for Woltemade

Nick Woltemade has taken a big step forward this season, establishing himself as a key player for VfB Stuttgart and attracting interest from a number of clubs, including Bayern Munich.

Around a week ago, it was reported that it would take an offer of €40 million to get Stuttgart to consider selling the Germany Under-21 international.

However, with a number of English clubs also said to be keeping tabs on Woltemade, the asking price has now been upped to €50 million, according to Sport Bild.

As well as Bayern, Brighton & Hove Albion and Everton are also said to be keeping tabs on the towering striker, who has scored 12 goals in 25 appearances in all competitions this season.
