Marco Reus Signs Extension Through 2019
Marco Reus has signed an extension with Borussia Dortmund through 2019 that removes his release clause.
Reus could previously be acquired this summer for just €25 million with Real Madrid and Barcelona linked to a bid.
Reus said on Facebook that he had made the decision to stay with his hometown club after listening to his heart.
He wrote: "I am very much looking forward to the future at BVB with our outstanding fans backing us. My heart has decided. Let's get it started. We want to achieve a lot of things. Not only this season."
In an interview with Ruhr Nachrichten, Reus added: "When I signed for Dortmund, I said that I want to achieve great things with the club. I have the feeling that it's not over yet, especially given our difficult situation right now.
"I stand by my words. You win and you lose together. It's also a decision for life. That's why it took me so long to decide."
