Borussia Dortmund have confirmed Germany international Marco Reus does have a release clause in his contract.

He enjoyed an impressive debut season with Jurgen Klopp's side and he has continued to prosper at the Westfalenstadion this term.

Ozil rejects Madrid accusations

The 24-year-old says he was a model professional during his time at the Santiago Bernabeu but admits he wasn't afforded the respect he deserved from the club's hierarchy.

Mesut Ozil has rejected claims made by Real Madrid Florentino Perez that he was sold for unprofessional behaviour.

The playmaker's father is considering taking legal action against the Blancos president after it was claimed by the supremo that Ozil "wasn't a good professional and was obsessed with women and nightlife".
