Mario Gotze believes the signings of Julian Brandt and Thorgan Hazard will be key in helping Borussia Dortmund to finally eclipse Bayern Munich and win back the Bundesliga crown.
Dortmund have been active in the transfer market this summer following their late-season collapse last term as they let their long-held lead at the top of the table slip to hand Bayern a seventh consecutive title.
Central defender Mats Hummels has returned to the club after spending three seasons with the Bavarians, whilst Germany international Nico Schulz has also joined from Hoffenheim.
