The Spanish forward had his best season of his career at Borussia Dortmund. He joined Borussia Dortmund in 2018 on loan. To the surprise of many, Alcacer instantly joined the Dortmund lineup and immediately began to be useful.
It is easy to watch live football matches involving this team on the sports statistics website already today. As for Alcacer, he was mostly on the field as a substitute during the 2018/19 season. Despite this, the forward managed to score into the opponents’ gate 18 times. He was second only to Robert Lewandowski in the scoring race.
Borussia quickly bought the striker’s contract, and it seemed that he would stay in the team for long. However, he argued with the club’s management and then left for Villarreal in 2020. The forward was no longer as productive as in Spain. Although his period at Borussia was relatively short (just 2 years), the fans of the Dortmund club will long remember Alcacer’s brilliant game.
