After missing 14 months of action with a back injury, midfielder Ilkay Gundogan is finally ready to return to Borussia Dortmund.
Gundogan, 23, has not played since August of last year, when he suffered an inflamed nerve in his back that required surgery.
With a Dortmund side ravaged by injuries this season, manager Jurgen Klopp will be hoping Gundogan can regain the form that made him one of the most sought-after midfielders in the world prior to his ailment.
