Marius Wolf

Marius Wolf arrived at Borussia Dortmund this summer for a small fee of €5 million after from Eintracht Frankfurt, where he scored 6 goals in a total of 34 matches last season. Wolf started the season as a first choice winger, but has found opportunities hard to come by since then.

Marius, came to Dortmund with the aim to provide strong competition and because of his versitality. But injuries and poor performances have meant that Jadon Sancho, Brunn Larsen, Christian Pulisic, Raphael Guerreiro and Maximilian Philipp are all ahead of him in the pecking order. His muscle injury, which kept him out for several weeks has further reduced the impact of the 23 year old. He has scored just one goal in 10 appearances so far and will be hoping to get more minutes in the second half of the season.
