The Bayern Munich duo has expressed their disappointment over Marco Reus’ decision to join Borussia Dortmund at the end of this season.
Bayern Munich winger, Franck Ribery, has expressed his disappointment after learning about Reus’ deal with Borussia Dortmund.
After reaching an agreement recently, Reus will join the Bundesliga Champions in the summer. Robben is gutted with midfielder’s decision to join their rivals, as Bayern were hoping to land him at Allianz-Arena in summers.
Ribery reckons that the youngster took a hasty decision and should have thought about the prospect of joining Bayern.
While talking to TZ, the Frenchman further stated:
"It's a real shame. I would have preferred it had he decided to join Bayern."
On the other hand, centre-back Holger Badstuber has also expressed his disappointment over Reus’ departure to the Westfalenstadion. He stated that the youngster is one of the highly-rated strikers in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904, and could have been
a big hit at Allianz-Arena.
The defender has wished him success for the rest of his career, urging his fellow players to respect Reus’ decision.
"The player has made his decision and will have good reasons for it. We can only respect his decision. It's a shame though as he is a young German player and would have fitted in very well at Bayern." Badstuber concluded.
A host of European clubs including Bayern Munich, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 were interested in the youngster, but he opted to join his boyhood heroes Dortmund instead.
The attacker started his footballing career with Dortmund’s youth academy, but he was asked to leave the club after being diagnosed with a physical deficiency. After spending three years with the 3rd division side, Rot
Weis, Reus signed for Borussia Monchengladbach in 2009.
The player has had a decent stint with the Foals thus far, and his more than impressive form this season forced the Borussians to pay 17.5 million euro buy-out clause for the striker.
Reus will spend the remaining part of this season at the Borussia-Park before exercising his skills at the Westfalenstadion in July.
