Reus will serve as Dortmund ambassador + is expected to revive the Asian market; Hummels is expected to take office

Hupu, August 13, German media photo newspaper explained in detail the future situation of Marco Reus and Maz Hummels.

Marco Reus:

The attacking player signed a contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy until the end of 2026. Now, the owner of the American club has signaled him that he hopes to renew his contract one year in advance. Reus was not opposed to this and said that signing the contract was just a form, just like a promise to Dortmund.

But it is worth mentioning that negotiations between Dortmund and Reus have been launched in recent weeks.

The end result is: Reus will become the brand ambassador for the Ruhr club. The work will begin at the beginning of his career, arguably as a free agent. After his career, he is expected to sign a formal contract.

Royce will mainly represent the club in important events, such as draws of lots or sponsor meetings. Reus is Dortmund's most well-known player to date, especially in Asia, where he is expected to revive the market.

Whether Reus will return to Dortmund after retirement or stay in Los Angeles is still an open question. Although he has deep roots in the city in the Ruhr district, he can certainly imagine settling in the United States.

Hummels:

For the centre-back, he completed his last appearance for Dortmund in a 1-2 friendly against Juventus last Sunday.

One thing is for sure: he wants to take a longer break, maybe even for years. He is currently only signed with Amazon PrimeVideo as a TV commentator.

But his desire was to serve Dortmund. What position do you hold? There is no confirmation yet. Hummels regularly exchanges information with Hans Joachim Vatsk to keep him up to date on the club. Just two weeks ago, the two even made a phone call.

Hummels himself said in an interview with Biography:

"I really miss Dortmund. In the next few months, I want to go there from time to time to watch the game. It is also possible that I will eventually become a TV commentator in Dortmund, which is a dream for me. Dortmund has been deeply rooted in my heart, not just as Dortmund, but as the entire city."
