Witsel: Joining Borussia Dortmund is my best career decision

Axel Witsel describes joining Borussia Dortmund as the best decision of his career, with Lucien Favre's side top of the Bundesliga.

Witsel signed a four-year deal with Dortmund after agreeing a move from Tianjin Quanjian in August and has made an immediate impact.

Dortmund's fine form has them four points clear atop the table with Witsel among the league's most reliable midfielders, having completed 92.5 per cent of his attempted passes in the Bundesliga.

And Witsel, who set up Paco Alcacer for Dortmund's winner against Bayern Munich last time out, is sure he made the right call in leaving the Chinese Super League.
