Mario Götze

Audi


He drives an Audi. Don't be posing for pictures whilst driving, mate.

We no longer see the warm smile that once greeted the world, ever so lovingly, on his face. Everything changed after he scored that ominous goal to win the World Cup for Germany in 2014. Discovered by Jürgen Klopp in 2009, this playmaker became an elemental part of the Dortmund side that made headlines during the beginning of this decade. This Memmingen born playmaker's career has been on a negative spiral ever since he ditched BVB for the Reds. The burden of the World Cup winning goal combined with a mysterious illness saw him hit rock bottom. The condition only worsened on return to Dortmund in 2016, but he's beginning to get better healthwise, and this reflects in his game too. The man who was once considered to be the German Messi, started kicking the ball when he was only three, and joined Dortmund's academy as an eight-year-old. He's only 27 but has played the game for 24 years. Yet to hit the peak of his career, one wonders if he'll ever achieve what he could have. He's an impact player who can change games on his own. However, Dortmund do not think the same. His future, once again, could be away from them, and we hope he doesn't get as unlucky as he did when he moved the first time.
