Attacking Midfield: Marco Reus
Captain. Leader. Legend. These three words perfectly encapsulate Marco Reus’ importance to Borussia Dortmund. He may still be playing at his peak, but he is already a club legend.
A product of the Borussia Dortmund academy, Reus had to leave the club as a teenager in 2006, but his immense potential and quality prompted the club to re-sign him six years later.
Fast forward to now, and Reus has been with the club through thick and thin. The attacking midfielder has remained a constant at Borussia Dortmund through all the highs and lows. He has produced countless game-changing performances and carried the club on his back time and time again.
Reus also captained the club for five years, and will likely be the club’s leading goalscorer of all time by the time he hangs up his boots. Going into the 2023/24 season, Reus has 161 goals and 121 assists to his name in 387 appearances for BVB.
Reus is set to spend the rest of his career at the Westfalenstadion, and by the time he retires, he will undoubtedly be considered as one of the greatest players to ever wear the famous Black and Yellow shirt.
