Playmaker resigns after 3 years away

Mario Gotze is officially a Borussia Dortmund player once more.

The German playmaker has signed on a 4 year contract, returning after 3 years spent at Bayern Munich following a transfer in 2013.

“I am personally very pleased that Mario has decided to return to Borussia Dortmund. I have since his departure in 2013, always hoped that he will one day return to us,” said Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke.

Mario Gotze is quickly looking to build bridges with the Borussia Dortmund fans as he rejoins the club he left for Bayern Munich in 2013.

Gotze says: “Three years later, at the age of 24, I look at it with different eyes. I can well understand that many fans could not understand my decision.”

Gotze has been bought to replace Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who has left the club for Manchester United and, ironically, was bought as Gotze’s replacement in 2013.
