BILD says while his VfB contract carried a €75m buyout clause, Newcastle paid €85m to outbid Bayern Munich for the young centre-forward.
However, the fee for Woltemade doesn't end there. VfB will receive an extra €2m each if the Premier League or Champions League title is won.
Furthermore, if the Magpies reach the Champions League semi-finals and the German plays at least 60 per cent of the minutes, a €1m bonus will be activated; another €500,000 will arrive if he is crowned top scorer in England.
