Marco Reus open to joining Cristiano Ronaldo in shock Al-Nassr free transfer as Borussia Dortmund deal runs out


MARCO REUS is open to a move away from Borussia Dortmund – and is refusing to rule out joing Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr.

Reus has been with the German outfit since 2012, but his contact is set to expire this summer.

He will be available as a free agent at the end of the season and the Daily Mail have reported that Al-Nassr are hoping to lure the attacking midfielder to Saudi Arabia.

The Saudi Pro League side have already shocked the world by signing Cristiano Ronaldo this season after his time with Manchester United was cut short.

Reus hasn’t ruled out a move away from the Signal Iduna Park after 11 years with the club.

He said to German outlet BILD: “Of course you look ahead. I only have six months left on my contract. I think if you didn’t think about it, that would be wrong too.”

The 33-year-old has made 368 appearances for Dortmund and has amassed a whopping 156 goals and 118 assists in that time, but his game time has dried up in recent seasons.

Reus’ agent, Dirk Lever, has also had his say on his client’s potential move to the Middle East.

He said: “It’s quite normal that other clubs are interested in a player like Marco, whose contract expires in six months.

“Marco has always emphasised how much BVB is important to him, but also that he wants to keep playing football. So it’s quite normal for us to look at other options.”

Al Nassr agreed a mind-blowing £173million-per-year contract with Ronaldo to attract him to the club back in December.

The side is also home to former Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina and ex-Bayern Munich midfielder Luiz Gustavo.
