Marco Reus has reportedly started to undergo Spanish lessons, amid speculation that both Barcelona and Real Madrid are keen on his services.

It is widely expected that the Germany international will depart Borussia Dortmund at the end of the season, when he will have just 12 months left to run on his contract at the Westfalenstadion.

The Premier League trio of Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal have all recently been credited with an interest in the 25-year-old.

However, according to Bild, the playmaker has begun to learn the Spanish language, with a view to completing a summer switch to La Liga.

It is believed that as a youngster, Reus was a supporter of Barcelona.
