VfB Stuttgart star Nick Woltemade is so determined to join Bayern Munich that he has turned down interest from two other top clubs, according to Bild.

The report states that meetings had been planned between the striker’s management and both Chelsea and Napoli, but these have now been called off as the 23-year-old pushes for a move to Bayern.

While Woltemade appears to have made up his mind, it remains uncertain whether the transfer will actually go through.

Stuttgart are reluctant to let their star striker leave and are reportedly demanding around €100 million - double what Bayern currently value him at - to release him.

With Woltemade under contract until 2028, the Swabians hold a strong negotiating position.
