On June 1, 2024, Marco Reus played his final game for Borussia Dortmund. Unfortunately, he did not get a fairytale ending as his boyhood club lost 0-2 to Real Madrid in the Champions League Final at London. Furthermore, it is pertinent to note that in the previous season, men in yellow lost the Bundesliga title on the basis of goal difference to their arch-rival Bayern Munich on the final day of the Season. Hence one can say Reus is not that a lucky footballer. But one will truly admit that he is definitely a loyal footballer. Afterall, he stayed with his boyhood club at a time when everyone else around him left for money and titles. He literally stood out as a symbol of loyalty and passion in this plastic era.
Interestingly at Dortmund he won just 2 DFB Pokal and 2 DFL Super cup trophies which is not that many titles for a player of his calibre. However, winning it for your people means more. And this is why Reus preferred Dortmund above everyone else. Though in his final attempt Reus failed to win a League as well as Champions League Title for the club of his life, but he will still be remembered by every football fan.
This is the Legend of Marco Reus.
