And if that’s at BVB, then it would be good for both him and Dortmund! He knows what the game needs.”Reus also praised Sancho, adding:“I have rarely played with a player who instinctively made such good decisions in tight situations. He was sometimes quiet and introspective, but he still radiated good humour.“Apart from his assists and goals, he knows what the game needs and what his teammates need. He is a player who draws two or three opponents to him and can accurately assess when to involve his teammates at the right moments.”Dortmund are keen on re-signing ReusThe interest is not one-sided. Reports from Germany suggest that Dortmund are keen on bringing Sancho back for a third stint, though it would come with strict conditions.The best period of Sancho’s career has been with the German giants, where he scored 53 goals and assisted another 67 in 158 games across all competitions.ClubGamesGoalsAssistsG+AAvg G+A per GameBorussia Dortmund15853671200.76He struggled to replicate his form in the Premier League despite having played with three different clubs, Chelsea, Manchester United and Aston Villa.While Villa have not fully shut down a potential permanent transfer, perhaps a return to Germany would be the best option for Sancho to revive his career.The post Aston Villa star urged to snub Premier League club for Borussia Dortmund appeared first on CaughtOffside.
