“Marco Reus left Borussia Dortmund at the age of 35 after a glittering career of 429 appearances, 170 goals and 131 assists in 12 seasons.
The player joined LA Galaxy quite similar to David Beckham who left Real Madrid in 2007
at the age of 35 after winning La Liga, to seek a new challenge in his career,” said Marca (Spain).
“Marco Reus is a world-class player. He has played very well at the highest level of the sport, including participating in two Champions League finals with Borussia Dortmund
and at the World Cup with the German national team,” said Will Kuntz, General Director of LA Galaxy.
However, Marco Reus missed the opportunity to win the Champions League after losing to Bayern Munich (in 2013) and Real Madrid (2024) in the finals respectively. Coming to MLS,
this veteran midfielder hopes to erase the second-place streak to conquer the 2024 MLS Cup championship with LA Galaxy.
However, Marco Reus will have to face a very strong opponent, Inter Miami, owned and co-owned by David Beckham, who has great ambitions with a famous star squad including Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.
In addition, LA Galaxy’s cross-city rival, Los Angeles FC, is also formidable with French star Olivier Giroud, who has just joined goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, who is playing brilliantly when reaching the Leagues Cup quarterfinals and is at the top of the MLS.
“Although there will be many challenges, we look forward to Marco Reus’ contributions to LA Galaxy as the team enters the important stage of the 2024 MLS season and beyond,” emphasized Mr. Will Kuntz.
US team recruits coach Mauricio Pochettino
According to the US press, the US Soccer Federation (USSF) with Sports Director Matt Crocker, has convinced coach Mauricio Pochettino, an Argentine, to become the new coach to replace coach Gregg Berhalter who was fired after the disappointing Copa America.
Coach Mauricio Pochettino, who is unemployed after parting ways with Chelsea, has accepted a new adventure, rebuilding the US team with many excellent talents to aim for the 2026 World Cup at home.
Reacting to the news that coach Mauricio Pochettino joined the US national team, former American football star Alexi Lalas expressed his excitement: “If Pochettino’s arrival at the US national team is true, I think it’s great and I’m very excited. He meets the criteria of a “big-name foreign coach” and has led top clubs in Europe. No coach is perfect. But keep going and make us believe that the US national team is on the right track to 2026.”
