Premier League duo Arsenal and Liverpool are in danger of losing out on Marco Reus after reports from Spain have claimed he is in advanced talks with champions, Atletico Madrid.
The Borussia Dortmund midfielder has been strongly linked with a move away from Germany this Summer, and once he rejected a contract extension from Jurgen Klopp, the exit rumours started heating up.
Both Arsenal and Liverpool are interested in signing the 23-year-old, but it looks like they’ve fallen behind to Diego Simeone’s side, who are in advanced talks regarding a potential £21.6million deal.
According to said reports in Spain, Atletico are keen on paying half the money now, and then the other half in January, but it’s believed Dortmund would prefer the whole sum immediately, in order to reinvest in the squad.
The stall in payments could see Arsenal and Liverpool claw themselves back in the race, but it seems that they are falling behind in the race for the German star.
