Marco Reus

[the wes 7,212]

Chelsea interest in Marco Reus would be no surprise. His €25m buyout clause would fit right in with the club's continual quest, and success, to stay on the right side of Financial Fair Play. Reus would surely be attracted to the idea of playing for Chelsea and living in London and for Borussia Dortmund it would provide a destination which wasn't Bayern Munich.

Borussia Dortmund are still fighting hard to get the player to sign a new contract, minus the €25m clause, and are ready to throw more money at that plan - as German clubs look forward to increased TV money. Should that fail then a Reus move outside of the Bundesliga is obviously preferable for them.

Reports over the past couple of days from the British press have said that Jose Mourinho is encouraging Chelsea to kick off talks with Reus' agent, but in Spain last week it was claimed that talks have started. Marca were covering Real Madrid interest in Reus and they explained that Mourinho is the danger man. He, according to the Spanish newspaper, had already been in contact with Volker Struth, who represents Reus.

On top of that, Roman Abramovich was said to be very keen to provide Mourinho with what he wants, having again got more involved in Chelsea transfers to try and help his manager. It all sounds very promising indeed, but the problem is the competition.

Bayern Munich, both the Spanish giants, and the Premier League's great and good have all been linked. It looks like Reus literally has his pick.

i dont like messi.

i am glad we have the french messi and the german messi out on loan. i hope we sell/loan out the egyptian messi too.

You are a Messi-ist! Banned.

[Jase 43,479]

In my opinion, he has to come

1 - Barcelona can't sign anyone, and wouldn't be able to guarantee him first team football

2 - Real Madrid won't sign him as they don't need him

3 - He won't go to Bayern, his agent has already denied him going there.

We're the only side left for him, bar maybe PSG, but he'd much rather come here i'd hope.

Get it done Jose!

Any top footballer in their right mind and wants to stay competitive wouldn't move to PSG...unless of course if they want a big fat paycheck every week and 'retire' by winning trophies easily.

for once the rodent might be helping us

[ZOS 580]

Let's just hope Mourinho wants him here. That's all that matters

[didierforever 7,349]

I really doubt he ll replace GC with a 50mil varane.

[Pizy 17,860]

Yeah, the Varane rumor needs to die. Zero chance of him leaving Madrid.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

But I heard he might still leave because Pepe and Ramos play ahead of him...

With Jose confirmed that Cech rumour are not true, it is safe to assume all rumour related with Reus from Metro, Daily Star and Daily Express are false too.

Need a credible sources one, before we get our hope too high. Until now, it is still a wishlist only.

[DanishBlue 426]

True. Bad sources.

Reading articles that a Schurrle + 20£ bid for Reus… hahah, who the hell can write something like that? its 19£m OR Schurrle!

in January we will come with a contract offer to Reus, like other clubs.. If he don't pick us, then fuck him all clubs gonna pay his 19£m clause, not a pound more if they don't want him in january.. I believe Reus want to finish the season with Dortmund cause he loves the club.

DOnt get your hopes up with Reus..

The german players are playing it perfectly. Playing together so their national team will improve...

Not like England...

Spain did the same thing..

Reus is either madrid or munich or united... Dont think barca is a team that fits him.

Arsenal is a longshot and chelsea is a even longer shot.

Why United over us? He wants to compete, and considering he lost in a CL final, I suspect he is dying to win that. We have a better chance of winning that than United. And here he has a starting spot.

We have more chance of signing him than Real imo. Real already have Ronaldo, James and Bale. Unless one of them leave which is not going to happen within the next year, he will not go there.

Like I have said before that is your opinion as well. At least state you believe rather than sounding assertive over everyone. I reckon he would fit Arsenal very well but rumours say he does not want to go there but yet again, rumours. I don't see why United have more chance than us. Yes, he will be more of a star because they would need to rely on him etc and we got Hazard, a star player already but until we hear Reus speak I would not say anyone else has a better chance than us of signing him.

I still reckon Bayern will sign him but that is just my opinion. Only Reus knows himself what he will do tbh.

This post makes zero sense. All you've done is dismiss Chelsea with a bunch of random statements... First you say Reus, being German, is destined to play with his German teammates. Then you say he's going to Madrid(Two Germans, one who is likely out), Munich or Utd(zero germans and not really a pressing need) Arsenal a long shot(with 4 Germans...)

And little chance for Chelsea based on what exactly?

Is there logic attached to this post that is hidden between the lines here? Chelsea have a tremendous shot at Reus! We can pay him a King's Random(which most players and agents crave) we have the best manager in the world to help him realize his full potential, we have Champions league football guaranteed for the foreseeable future, we have a great young core to grow with, he will play loads, and also gain more exposure than most teams in the world. What reasons are you presenting for me to think this isn't something he's interested in?
