There are players that by fault of his character, of his ambition, of the luck or of the injuries, do not finish arriving to the level that expected by the quality and the potential that had inside. That is the case of Marco Reus, footballer of the Borussia Dortmund and of the German selection. The attacker was does years one of the big promises of Europe and many thought that it could turn one of the best players of the old continent.

Finally it did not go like this and the germano has remained in a good footballer that could become a lot of better. The injuries have marked the career of a Reus that already has 30 years and is one of the veterans of the Dortmund. His quality is unquestionable, but his endeble physical has not allowed him have the necessary regularity as to be able to give the jump that could have given by the potential that had.

In fact, as it collects the German version of Goal.com, the player could finish being one of the stars of the FC Barcelona in the summer of 2015. The portal refers to some statements of the own attacker for GQ in which it speaks of this interest culé. "In the summer of 2015, my boss Dirk Hebel seated in the hotel of the airport of Düsseldorf with Raúl Sanllehí. Six months afterwards, members of the club went back to send a message to bring me to Spain", commented the germano.

The Barcelona interested very seriously by the international by Germany and arrived him to consider a basic piece for his forward. It could have done very good crumbs with Leo Messi and, if it did not have lesionado so much, perhaps would have arrived to the level that many expected. But the interest of the Barça no fructificó and went the own footballer the one who decided to remain in Dortmund to triumph with the team that gave it to him everything.

In addition to the group barcelonista, other big of Europe also interested by the attacker. In these moments there was very few better young footballers that he and this attracted to a lot of clubs. "Also there were meetings with Richard Law of the Arsenal, Ivan Gazidis of the Milan, Olivier Letang of the PSG or representatives of the two clubs of Manchester: the City and the United", explained Reus.

The reason by which Reus did not leave

The footballer explained in DAZN why decided to refuse all the substantial offers that received in his day. "Of course that thought in the offers of these big clubs more than a day. If it did not say this mentiría, but at the end always chose to my club and no me arrepiento. I want to turn me into German champion with this club. Knowing that have three, four good years, every year try it take advantage of to the maximum", recognised.
