Jurgen Klopp hopeful on Mario Gotze

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp is hopeful that Mario Gotze will play a part in their title challenge.

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp is hopeful that Arsenal target Mario Gotze will play a part in their title challenge.

The 19-year-old has not featured since December due to a groin problem but is close to a return to full training.

However, Klopp is careful not to rush the promising youngster back into action.

"The probability that he can still play five or six games for us is relatively high," said the 44-year-old. "But it is going to take a bit more time yet - he is not fit enough yet.'

"We are certainly not going to bring him back too soon."

Gotze had initially been ruled out for up to six months but is now back in light training.
