Aubameyang returns as Dortmund face Spurs

Gabonese striker, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang returns to Borussia Dortmund squad as the Bundesliga side host Premier League counterparts, Tottenham in their Champions League on Tuesday.

Aubameyang was punished for being late for training and shooting an unauthorised video at the club’s training ground by being excluded in the team that lost at Stuttgart in the league last Friday.

Spurs will be hoping to win the group, although they have qualified, while Dortmund’s hopes of reaching the knockout stages are out of their own hands.

The German side must win and hope Real Madrid do not beat Apoel to keep alive their chances of progressing.

Dortmund look set for a place in the Europa League at best, and could do with Aubameyang finding his form.

The Gabon striker scored 15 goals in his first 12 appearances this season but has gone five matches without a goal.
