Manchester United preparing January swoop for Marco Reus

Manchester United are preparing a big money transfer offer in an attempt to prise away German midfielder Marco Reus from Borussia Dortmund during the winter transfer window.

The Times reports that the Red Devils boss David Moyes had dispatched his assistant Steve Round to Signal Iduna Park, where the talented playmaker scored and bagged an assist as the Bundesliga giants clinched a vital 3-1 victory over Napoli on Match Day 5 of the Champions League.


However, it is believed that the Premier League champions will be hindered in their pursuit of the talented player due to his release clause, which now stands at £29m.


The 24-year-old whose contract expires in June 2017, has notched up 9 goals in all competitions for Borussia Dortmund this season.
