Nick Woltemade has presented himself very well in the preparation of SV Werder Bremen – but is that enough for a future on the Weser? Now Ole Werner talks about the talent.
Bremen – Sometimes amateur football isn’t all that different from professional football – for example when it comes to nicknames. It feels like every self-respecting team has a “tall” in the squad. At the SV Werder Bremen is no different. is not surprising Nick Woltemade the bearer of this title, due to a height of 1.98 meters, the name just comes to mind. The native of Bremen would also like to impose himself again, especially in terms of sport, after he recently experienced a strong third division season as a loan player at SV Elversberg. In Austria, where Woltemade was repeatedly shouted “Langer” during Werder’s training sessions and friendlies, he has managed to do that quite well to some extent. However, it is not yet clear whether he will really take off in the next attempt at Werder.
Werder Bremen coach Ole Werner on Nick Woltemade: “The boy made a giant step last year”
“You can see that this year has helped him – purely physically, as he claims, also in terms of the pace of the game. You could see that against a robust English team.” Werder Bremen Trainer Ole Werner shortly after the blitz tournament in Innsbruck, where Nick Woltemade was used in the second game against second division club Ipswich Town (1-1). “I’m satisfied with how he presents himself. The boy has made a giant step in the last year.”
What is also striking: the native of Bremen is currently endowed with great self-confidence. After 17 goals and ten assists in 35 competitive games for the Saarlanders, that’s no real surprise. At Werder Bremen he now wants to show that he can also cause danger two floors up in front of the opposing goal. He does not act as a classic striker, but should provide impetus either as a hanging striker or as an attacking midfielder. The 21-year-old tries to do that regularly, sometimes getting caught up in dribbling on an opponent too often. What used to work well in the youth and now also in the 3rd division is not that easy at a higher level. But Nick Woltemade needs good scenes, even as many as possible – otherwise, with all its potential, it could quickly be sidelined in the system of Ole Werner devices. Just like a year ago. “The agreement with him,” says Werder’s coach, “is that we will take a very close look at how the competitive situation is and what opportunities he has during the season.” (mbü)
