Interview with Borussia Dortmund’s Marco Reus
Soccer News from Germany – Spotlight on the Bundesliga
Having lost out on a first Bundesliga title since 2012 by just two points in the Bundesliga to FC Bayern München last season, Marco Reus and Borussia Dortmund had a long summer to heal their wounds.
For the new year, the 29-year-old Dortmund captain has only one goal in mind.
To win the league.
The question really was, how has he changed in the last decade?
“I think, physically and in terms of my appearance, a lot has changed but that’s normal,” said Marco Reus. ” You think that your haircut, for example, is really fashionable and then a few years later you see a picture of yourself and think “what was I doing?”
“I think that’s true of everyone. I’m happy to have been part of these past ten years and they have influenced me in certain ways,” said Reus.
Reflecting on the greatest moments of his Bundesliga career, Reus said, “My first Bundesliga game is something I’ll always remember, just like my first Bundesliga goal.”
“With Dortmund, there have been countless moments,” said Reus. “These are moments which you should keep in mind because these are positive things and that’s important in this world.”
The goals for Borussia Dortmund in 2020 are clear. According to Reus, the only way is to be ambitious.
“You have to set yourself ambitious goals.”
“Before the season, we said we wanted to be champions because we wanted that,” said Reus. “It came from the team and we had that feeling, there was nothing else to say than we want to be German champions.”
“With this squad, you can’t set yourself any other goal and it should always be the goal to get the best you can from a season and hopefully, the title will be the result,” added Reus.
