Arsenal 'plotting £20m Marco Reus swoop'

Arsenal step up their pursuit of Borussia Dortmund's Marco Reus, according to reports.

Arsenal are reportedly ready to make a £20m move for Borussia Dortmund midfielder Marco Reus.

The German international had been linked with a move to Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich, but the Bavarians are thought to have pulled out of the race.

According to the Daily Star, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger will look activate Reus's £20m release clause in a bid to bring him to the Premier League.

Dortmund's ability to hold on to Reus appears to be waning as they struggle in their pursuit of a Champions League qualification place for next season.

Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United are also believed to harbour an interest in the 25-year-old, but Arsenal look to have stolen a march on their Premier League rivals in the race to sign the much-coveted star.
