It is believed, though, Reus could be headed to Major League Soccer, with The Athletic now reporting that the attacker has held preliminary talks with St. Louis over a potential transfer as a free agent.
The report claims negotiations are still at an early stage, but Germany international could have the chance to reunite with his close friend and former BVB teammate Roman Burki, who spent seven years at Dortmund before joining Bradley Carnell's side in 2022.
Earlier this week, former Manchester City and France star Samir Nasri claimed he had a chat with Reus about his future.
