His contract ran until June 30, 2012. In the 2011/12 season he was second on the list of goalscorers of the Regionalliga West with 20 goals for the FCK reserve.

On March 3, 2012 (24th matchday), Wooten made his Bundesliga debut against VfL Wolfsburg . In April 2012 he signed his first licensed player contract with 1.
