Reflecting on the momentous occasion, Reus expressed gratitude for the overwhelming love and support he received from the fans throughout his tenure. “It was the last time I was at home, and I wanted to enjoy it. I am incredibly grateful for the love the people have shown me. I hope to give something back to them. It was perfect to feel the atmosphere of the ‘Yellow Wall,'” shared Reus, who celebrated with the Dortmund supporters.
Over his illustrious 12-year stint with the club, the forward amassed an impressive tally of 170 goals in 427 matches, leaving behind a lasting legacy cherished by Dortmund faithfuls.
