Felix Gotze - Option off bench Gotze (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's Bundesliga clash against Borussia Dortmund.

Impact Gotze returned to the matchday squad after the injury he picked up in a training collision with Marvin Pieringer had forced him to miss the recent clash against Freiburg, with coach Ralf Kettemann's confidence in his availability proving well-founded following his return to full training Tuesday. The experienced defender's presence among the substitutes restores depth to Paderborn's defensive rotation for the trip to Dortmund, though the club opted to ease him back with a bench role rather than throwing him straight back into the starting lineup.

The 19-year-old should therefore return to contention for Saturday's trip to Borussia Dortmund, provided he experiences no setback during the remainder of the week. His quick recovery should allow him to resume his role in Paderborn's squad after missing just one match.
