Marco Reus has been one of the most talked about player for the last couple of years. The Borussia Dortmund player has been on the wishlist of almost all the big clubs.

A player of Reus’s ability will be a welcome addition to any club at the Premier League. The German professional possesses exceptional ability from the set pieces while his long balls are second to none. He can be equally phenomenal both at the right as well as at the left. Moreover, his methodical nature in front of goal makes him a complete premier league fit player. He can take close chances and score long distance goals. All in all, he is a complete midfield player who can change the course of the game at any time.
