Hoffenheim have confirmed the end of Cole Campbell's loan spell. The Dortmund winger is returning to his parent club.

What happened?

Cole Campbell joined Hoffenheim in the summer to gain experience in the Bundesliga. But after just a few months, he is already heading back to Borussia Dortmund.

Why does it matter for Hoffenheim?

The return of Cole Campbell to Dortmund means that Hoffenheim will now have to look for alternatives to fill the gap in the team. With 65 goals scored this season and a positive goal difference of +13, Hoffenheim are on the lookout for reinforcements to maintain their 5th place in the Bundesliga.

What comes next?

Hoffenheim are currently 28 points behind league leaders Bayern München and must focus on the upcoming games to reduce the gap. With a recent form of LWDWW, the club wants to continue the positive streak and improve their position in the table.
