Soto, 35, sustained a serious knee injury during his side's match against Hamburg on May 3, 2015.

It was planned that Soto would return to Colombia last summer but he agreed after his injury to renew his contract with Mainz and to be treated in Germany.

Soto hopes to play again this season even for only a few minutes. Mainz are currently in sixth place in the Bundesliga standings.
