Germany International Marco Reus train nearly to be transferred to Liverpool, Reds offered  £30 million for Dortmund star.

Liverpool FC s are said to be leading the race for Germany international Reus, who has rejected a new contract at Borussia Dortmund and looks set to leave.

His release clause, which comes into effect next summer, was thought to be worth £27million, but Bild says interested clubs have now been alerted that it is actually as low as £19.8million.

German paper Bild suggested that Reus’ figure is around £20m on the front page of their paper.

It was originally thought that his release clause was set at around £30m, however the real figure is thought to be much lower.

That means that Liverpool could sign the 25-year-old for less than £20million, if they successfully fend off interest from other clubs.

Liverpool are known admirers but it was widely believed that Reus would command a fee closer to £30m, pricing the Reds out of any move.

However, with all three already well stocked with midfielders and with Marco Reus said to be looking for a big project at his next club, Liverpool will firmly be in the race.
