Maximilian Arnold reveals he almost ended up at Dortmund

Maximilian Arnold claimed Borussia Dortmund showed interest in him before he joined Wolfsburg in 2009.
VfL Wolfsburg captain Maximilian Arnold has revealed he almost joined Borussia Dortmund back in 2009.

Ultimately, however, the 28-year-old midfielder ended up joining Wolfsburg's youth team from Dinamo Dresden.

"At the beginning of my career, I almost ended up at Dortmund. But I liked Wolfsburg better," Arnold told Sport Bild.

"There has been interest in me from the Bundesliga and abroad. But it never seemed to be a better fit than Wolfsburg. I never had the feeling that I urgently needed to leave."
