Liverpool to make Marco Reus club's highest paid player ever?

Liverpool are reportedly planning to offer Marco Reus a £200,000-a-week contract in order to push through a move for the sought-after midfielder.

The 25-year-old Borussia Dortmund star is said to be the number-one target of Reds manager Brendan Rodgers ahead of the January transfer window.

Dortmund are alleged to have already started looking for a replacement for Reus, who has made just two appearances so far this season due to injury.

A report in The Metro claims that Liverpool will offer the Germany international a five-year mega-money contract, which will make him the highest paid player in the history of the club.

Manchester City have also been linked with a move for Reus, along with Premier League rivals Manchester United and Arsenal.
