The path is clear for Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal to battle it out for Marco Reus in January after Borussia Dortmund made a move for Paris St-Germain star Javier Pastore.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, Jurgen Klopp is keen to sign the Argentina international in the upcoming transfer window, and despite interest from Real Madrid, Pastore has his heart set on a move to the Bundesliga outfit.

His arrival would open the door for Reus' exit, who is also wanted by Manuel Pellegrini's Manchester City.

The Germany international will see his release clause drop to just £20million next summer, and Klopp is keen to secure a fee closer to £30million this winter.

Reus, 25, looked set to join Barcelona after the World Cup, but the Spanish giants instead moved for Liverpool's Luis Suarez.

The winger has no intention of renewing his current deal, and has instructed his agent to find him the best offer available from the Premier League.

City are the bookies' favourites to sign Reus, whilst Dortmund's fierce rivals Bayern Munich are also believed to be in with a chance after moving for his former team-mates Mario Goetze and Robert Lewandowski in recent times.
