Arsenal have made an enquiry for Borussia Mönchengladbach attacker . The 22 year-old has scored seven times in 12 Bundesliga appearances this season, and has clearly caught the eye of Arsene Wenger.
Arsenal 已向德甲球隊 Borussia Mönchengladbach 的進攻中場 Marco Reus 提出轉會請求。22歲的他在本季 12場賽事踢進 7球，也獲得 教授的青睞。

Gladbach coach Lucien Favre tells tomorrow’s Bild:
Gladbach 球隊教練 Lucien Favre 則在隔日的《Bild》指出：

“Jens Lehmann has given Wenger an tip-off. After that Arsène has called me.
“Jens Lehmann 已經給了 Wenger 暗示，最近 Arsene 又找我談此事。

I had to be honest. I told Wenger he (Reus) was a very good player. But I want to keep him.”
老實說，我告訴 Wenger ，Reus 他是個非常好的球員，但我不打算賣他。”

That’s hardly surprising, considering just a day or two ago Favre described Reus as “one of the best players I’ve ever trained”.  Raphael Honigstein described Reus to me as “the white Ashley Young” – and, like the Manchester United winger, Reus enjoys cutting in from the left-flank on to his preferred right foot.  You can read a profile of the player here, and watch some clips of him in action below. The boy strikes a ball very clearly indeed:
這一點也不意外，想想就在一兩天前，該球隊教練 Favre 形容 Reus 是“我所訓練以來最佳的球員”。Raphael Honigstein 向我形容 Reus 如同“白膚的 Ashley Young”，而且就像那位 ManUtd 的邊鋒，Reus 喜歡切入到左翼位置，即便他是個慣用右腳的球員。 你可以參考這名球員的資料，觀賞他踢球的片段。這小子的踢球能力頗有一兩把刷子：



A release clause of €18m comes in to play next summer, but Arsenal could be forced to pay even more in January.  The other major stumbling block is the supposed interest of Bayern Munich, who are perhaps a more natural destination for a player who is far from certain to excel on foreign shores.  Wait and see, I guess.
明年夏季引進他的費用為€18m，但 Arsenal 可能會被迫在明年一月以更高的轉會費來引進。主要的障礙來自於德甲 Bayern Munich 也對他感興趣，且對於還未表態想到國外踢球的球員來說，職涯目標設在 Bayern Munich 在自然也不過了。等著瞧，看接下來會如何發展。

Over the next two transfer windows, Arsenal will be as much at pain to hold on to players as acquire them.  The last few months have seen Samir Nasri follow Cesc Fabregas out the door, and serious questions raised over the future of current captain and talisman, Robin van Persie.  In that climate, it has been particularly heartwarming to hear the words of Jack Wilshere.  Although currently on the sidelines through injury, there can no doubt that he’s one of our most important players, and his commitment to the club appears to be unwavering.  When asked if he wanted to remain with Arsenal “forever”, Wilshere said:
接下來的兩次轉會窗口（明年一月份和七～八月），Arsenal 想買進球員一事可能會白費力氣。過去幾個月看到 Samir Nasri 也隨著 Cesc Fabregas 的步伐離去，接著媒體質疑槍手隊長同時也是象徵的 Robin van Persie 的未來存在疑慮。在這樣動盪不安的時期裡，Jack Wilshere 的一席話令人感到窩心。雖然他還在養傷，但毋庸置疑，他是我們隊上重要的球員，他對球隊的承諾更是堅定不移。媒體問他是否願意永久待在 Arsenal，Wilshere 表示：

“I promise that, yeah. I’ve been at the club since I was nine and learned to love it.
“是的，我願意。九歲起我就在這裡成長，也開始珍賞這裡的一切。

“From the [Patrick] Vieira days, to [Dennis] Bergkamp, [Cesc] Fabregas, I’ve watched them come through and move on. There’s a crop of new players, [Aaron] Ramsey, myself, Kieran Gibbs hopefully we can really create something special. I love the club and I want to be part of its future.”
“從 Patrick Vieira 還在的日子，到 Dennis Bergkamp、Cesc Fabregas 的期間，看著他們的來臨和向外發展。現在則是一批新球員，Aaron Ramsey、我、Kieran Gibbs 滿心期待能帶給槍手新氣象。我愛著這裡，也渴望成為未來的一份子。”

I think that it’s never a wise for a footballer to make those kinds of promises.  Let’s just hope his resolve is not severely tested by circumstance.
我認為一個足球員表示要做出這般的承諾是不太明智的。但願他的決心不會被環境影響。
