Marco Reus can't wait to hit the pitch together with the newest Borussia Dortmund purchase - Erling Braut Haaland.

In January, Dortmund club acquired the promising Norwegian football talent. During the season he scored an impressive 28 goals in 22 matches playing for "Salzburg".

M. Reus believes that the team hasn't had such a striker since 2014.

"We haven't had a player like him since Lewandowski left," said M. Reus. "He makes us more flexible and allows us to have more options. We feel positive about having a player like him."

"Now we have to wait for him to settle in and get to know the whole team better. We also need to do our 'homework' to adapt and use his strengths. It will take time, but it will happen," added the German.
