Huge for the Blues. One of the most promising young Forwards in football.

The Blues are Chelsea so I wasn't sure what you were talking about.  Tho Chelsea signed someone good.

I don't think The Toffee's like to be called The Blues :p

Technically it's one of their recognized nicknames.

Just call them that other Merseyside club.

Update to my previous comment.  Reus release clause is only 27m pounds next year...  Dortmund will be wise to sell him now to highest bidder and outside Germany.

 

Current bidders include teams like Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Bayern and others.

 

I think he will end up in Manchester United.

 

They have till January to get him to renew.

He won't renew.... He wants out.  So clause kicks in January?

[FuFuLamePoo]

Plzzz not Reus to Man U.  He's one of my favorite players I don't wanna have to root against him

[DirtyMagic97]

His clause becomes effective in 2015. There is some debate as to whether that means January or the summer window.

 

I don't think we can say he definitely wants out. I think he wants to explore his options this summer though.

Apparently Bayern want's Khedira for free next summer and Khedira want's to go to Bayern.  Khedira intends to finish his contract with Madrid this year and then leave for free while he's in his prime.  Real Madrid is reportedly pissed off with Khedira.

Everton paid 28m pounds for Lukaku?  Where the hell they got this money?
