Really hope this goes through as it was very disheartening to see him leave the Werderaners as the team continue to struggle without him and what he built for them.

Would also be quite strange to see him manage anything outside Bremen yet intriguing at the same time.

Hope this happens.

You do realise teams that are in position to win things an in CL will pay just as much right lol?

You wouldn't be going up against scrubs lol, you'll be going up against the the best teams in the world lol.

Last season i'd see no issue, but when you can't even beat f*cking Sunderland there's no way Reus would turn down City, Chelsea or Arsenal.... and that's in England alone to come and fight for 7th place glory.

Borussia Dortmund midfielder Ilkay Gundogan is refusing to sign a new deal in order to force a summer move to Real Madrid, reports Mundo Deportivo.

The Bundesliga star has been linked with a move to the Bernabeu with reports last week suggesting that Real Madrid had already agreed a fee of £25m with Borussia Dortmund for the player.Real Madrid see Gundogan as a direct replacement for Xabi Alonso, who is likely to depart the club when his contract expires in the summer.

Arsenal and Manchester United have also been linked with a move for the German international but reports in Spain say Gundogan has his heart set on a move to La Liga.

Manchester United are still keen on signing a creative midfielder after failing to bring Thiago Alcantara, Cesc Fabregas or Anders Herrera to Old Trafford in the summer.

David Moyes was thought to be keen on the player but Arsene Wenger has also been linked with a move to bring Gundogan to the Emirates stadium.

Both the Gunners and the Red Devils were boosted when the player's father denied reports that a fee had been agreed but Mundo Deportivo says Gundogan only has eyes for Los Blancos.

With his contract set to expire in the summer of 2015, Gundogan is ready to hold Borussia Dortmund to ransom, forcing the club to sell him soon or risk losing him for free.

He has reportedly rejected talks with the club's technical director, Michael Zorc and is determined to seal a move to Real Madrid.

Mundo Deportivo also claims that Real tried to sign Gundogan before signing Gareth Bale in the summer.

it's a hypothetical....but if we offered money and kagawa to BVB you don't think they would think long and hard?....you get a player that fits your team that your coach absolutely loves and cash? how far fetched is that to believe honestly

Mole is just profoundly butthurt that Reus has a higher chance of joining Manchester United than NUFC Laughing

no he is just doing what everyone else is doing, kicking us while we're down after 20 years of jealousy of the what United has accomplished.

it's understandable....I don't take it personal, it is what we have done to Arsenal for the last half decade...dish it out you have to be able to take it too.

We can't even sign a random kid off the street so seems likely....

Also its extremely farfetched for one Dortmund won't entertain the idea of selling Reus in January....

Then you have the summer when his release clause is activated.... there's not a damn thing BVB can do about it so your bargaining chip which you are clinging on to dear life means the total sum of f*ck all.

It doesn't matter what BVB want.... any of the other clubs from around the world who pay just as much as Man Utd do can just pay the release clause and be done with it.

Unless Man Utd finish in the CL which isn't happening as long as Moyes is there and somehow prove that they are willing to sanction 6 WC players in one summer to entice Reus there's not a chance of it happening.

I believe that comes into effect in 2015,not this year.Confirmed it from a German fan on another forum.

Remy Cabella admits he would be more than happy to move to the Premier League, if Montpellier agree to sell him this month. Newcastle are keen on landing the 23-year-old midfielder.
