According to reports from The Express this evening, Barcelona are ‘in talks’ with Borussia Dortmund over a potential deal for star forward Marco Reus.
The German international boasts a formidable 37 goals and 27 assists in 82 Bundesliga appearances for the Westfalen outfit and played pivotal role in their surprise march to the 2013 Champions League final.

He’s been linked with a move to the Premier League for much of his three-term Dortmund tenure, with reports earlier this summer mooting Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool as potential suitors.
According to The Express, however, Barcelona are currently in talks with the German outfit regarding the 26 year-old’s availability.
Citing French publication beIN Sport, they claim the European Champions are targeting Reus as a replacement for winger Pedro, who officially joined Chelsea in a £21million deal earlier this week.
Having penned a new contract in February this year, however, it’s believed Dortmund value the versatile forward at around the £45million mark and feel under no obligation to sell.
I have been saying all along, Marcos Reus is the perfect fit for MANUTD. LVG should stop wasting further time and demand Ed Woodward to start serious transfer negotiations for this gem of a player. Manutd have to simply out bid Barcelona or any other bidders for that matter.
we never needed pedro… valencia was owiz there. it was only an added advantage. wat we need is a strong, tall Cb who can partner carrick. one that can head a ball. rojo n blind caneva head a ball. n a striker to partner rooney. just dat
marco reus is a nice player barcelona must sign him in place of pedro to bolster attack.
