Paco Alcacer

The Spaniard arrived on loan from Barcelona last week and will be aiming to spearhead Borussia Dortmund’s attack this season. Alcacer is a proven goalscorer and will be crucial to the team’s chances this season. If Alcacer can hit the ground running and score 20+ goals this season, Dortmund will have a great chance of achieving all their targets this season.

Maximilian Philipp

Philipp has been sharp in the preseason and is going to be the backup striker for Dortmund following the arrival of Alcacer. His performances have been encouraging so far and the new coach will have to work on allowing him to be the best possible striker that he can.

Alexander Isak

Isak is young and will have to do a lot in training for the coach to consider him a serious option which seems unlikely this season.
