Marco Reus (German pronunciation: [ˈmaʁkoː ˈʁɔʏs]; born 31 May 1989) is a German professional footballer who plays as a forward for Major League Soccer club LA Galaxy. Known for his versatility, speed, and technical skills, Reus is widely regarded as one of Borussia Dortmund's best ever players.[4][5][6]
Reus spent his youth career at Borussia Dortmund, prior to leaving for Rot Weiss Ahlen. He joined Borussia Mönchengladbach in 2009, and had his most successful season at the club in 2012, scoring 18 goals and providing 12 assists in the Bundesliga to help Borussia Mönchengladbach secure a place in the following season's UEFA Champions League.
Reus returned to his hometown club and back-to-back Bundesliga winners Borussia Dortmund after the 2011–12 season. With Dortmund, Reus won the DFB-Pokal in 2017 and 2021, the DFL-Supercup in 2013 and 2019 and reached the Champions League final in 2013 and 2024, his first and last season with the club. He finished Bundesliga runner-up seven times in his twelve years at the club. He also served as captain from 2018 until 2023. Marco Reus has scored over 150 goals for the club, and is one of only three players to have reached 100 Bundesliga goals and assists each. He has been voted German Footballer of the Year twice, as well as Bundesliga Player of the Season on three occasions. With more than 200 goals scored throughout his career, Reus is considered one of the most dangerous midfielders of this century.[7]
After his contract at Dortmund expired at the end of the 2023–24 season, Reus signed for US-American side Los Angeles Galaxy in August 2024, until the end of 2026, leaving Dortmund after 12 years, as well as Germany for the first time in his career. Four months after signing for Galaxy, Reus clinched his first trophies with the club.
Reus has 48 caps with the German national team. He represented them at two major tournaments (Euro 2012 and World Cup 2018), but also missed three World Cups (2010, 2014, 2022) and two Euros (2016, 2020) due to physical reasons. Thus, Marco Reus was not part of the Germany squad that would win the World Cup in 2014, after suffering an ankle injury.
