"We successfully resigned Mario Gotze today. I think it is a very positive signal. Mario (Gotze) had decided to leave Bayern Munich. I think it would be great for him to come back to the big family of Dortmund rather than going to a brand new club or city. He is familiar with the stadium and the atmosphere at Dortmund, as is his family. I am very happy and positive regarding his come back. I am really looking forward to seeing him back training with us."

SOUNDBITE: (German) Thomas Tuchel, Dortmund head coach (on Henrikh Mkhitaryan leaving the club for Manchester United):

"It is true that Micki (Henrikh Mkhitaryan) made a huge contribution to the team last season. He brought us great results. He is a player I like very much. Due to the financial reasons he has to go to Manchester United. I was surprised and disappointed about that, but in terms of the match against him and Manchester United, we will do our best because we are Dortmund."
