Marco Reus Joins LA Galaxy Following Dortmund exit
Marco Reus ended his 12-year stay with Borussia Dortmund at the end of last season, and has found a new home with the LA Galaxy.
Marco Reus has completed a move to the MLS, linking up with the LA Galaxy after leaving Borussia Dortmund at the end of last season.
Reus, who made 429 appearances across a 12-year stint with Die Schwarzgelben, has signed a two-and-a-half-year contract through to the end of the 2026 campaign.
During his time with Dortmund, the 35-year-old registered 301 goal contributions (170 goals and 131 assists), winning four major honours in the process.
He has twice been voted German Footballer of the Year, as well as receiving the Bundesliga Player of the Season on three occasions.
Reus featured in both of Dortmund's Champions League final losses, with his last outing for the club coming in their 2-0 defeat to Real Madrid at Wembley back in June.
The former German international ended the campaign with 14 goal contributions (six goals and eight assists) in the league last season, a total only bettered by Julian Brandt (18) and Niclas Fullkrug (20).
“We are excited to welcome Marco to the team,” said Galaxy head coach Greg Vanney.
“He is a proven winner and leader whose talent and vision for the game will integrate seamlessly into the group as we prepare for the restart of the league and the run into the playoffs.”
The Galaxy return to MLS action on August 25 when they face Atlanta United as they look to remain at the summit of the Western Conference.
Vanney and his side were knocked out of the Leagues Cup last week following a 3-1 defeat to Seattle Sounders at Lumen Field.
