Woltemade is the Plan B — and possibly the Plan A in a chasing-the-game-late scenario where Germany needs a physical reference point in the box. He is also the obvious option if Havertz’s fitness is managed rather than restored.

Strengths

aerial duels in the box
back-to-goal hold-up play
surprising footwork for his frame

Recent form

Adapted to the Premier League through 2025-26; double-figure league goals.

Stands 6'6" but came through as a No. 10 in Werder Bremen's youth setup before puberty and coaching turned him into a striker.
