#2 Borussia Dortmund
With Mario Götze out for the season due to a metabolic disorder, he has left the German side with limited creativity in the middle of the park. Thomas Tuchel is in dire need of a chief creator to feed his struggling Dortmund side. Tuchel’s side is filled with young, mazy dribblers that exuberate enthusiasm but lack game management.
At the age of 28, Mesut Özil has the experience of winning a World Cup under his belt; he could be the locker room figure to galvanise Dortmund’s exciting squad.
Borussia Dortmund currently trail Bayern Munich by 15 points, something that hasn’t happened in recent years. Germany’s second most famous club have not lived up to expectations this season and they need an overhaul in their front 6 options this summer. Özil would seamlessly fit into Tuchel’s 4-2-3-1, significantly helping to reduce the gulf in quality between Dortmund and Bayern.
