BVB, rumor: Contract talks at Reus and Brandt before completion
The contract talks between BVB and two service providers are apparently entering the home stretch. As the Ruhr news report, the tendency for Marco Reus and Julian Brandt is clearly in the direction of staying in Dortmund.

BVB, News: Reus wants championship with Dortmund
Marco Reus definitely wants to win the German championship with BVB this year. “The championship is simply a special title. It would be nice to celebrate such a title with this team and our fans in Dortmund. That’s my dream,” said the 33-year-old sky.
Of course, the upcoming game at FC Bayern would be of particular importance. “It’s not the decisive game, but it’s a very important one. If you win the game, you take that confidence with you into the upcoming games. Hopefully we’ll be ready,” Reus continued.
Borussia Dortmund is currently only one point ahead of the competitor from Munich, so if they lose, Bayern will overtake them again. However, the black and yellow have been waiting for a competitive win against the German record champions for almost four years.
The last encounter that Dortmund played victoriously was on August 3, 2019. At that time, they defeated Munich 2-0 in the Supercup final.
