Rumour: Chelsea look to sign Borussia Dortmund midfielder Marco Reus

Borussia Dortmund v FC Bayern Muenchen - DFL Supercup

Marco Reus

Chelsea are said to be keen to bring latest German sensation Marco Reus to Stamford Bridge in a cash plus player transfer.

Marco Reus has seen his stock rise rapidly since he burst on to the scene for Borussia Dortmund. The silky mid-fielder has scored 30 goals in 71 appearances for the club in just over a year, and has been the catalyst in their recent success.

Jose Mourinho will use out of favour Belgian creative mid-fielder Kevin De Bruyne as bait, to make the deal more attractive for the German outfit.

A host of other top European clubs are said to be interested in the 24-year old, which could increase the hurdles Chelsea will face in securing the German’s signature. However, Borussia Dortmund will be reluctant to let go of their rising star as they themselves look to vie for top honours this campaign.
