Reus could as well miss this world cup after the Borussia Dortmund captain is carried off on a stretcher in Revierderby against arch-rivals Schalke, Reus has not been fortunate to be part of the Germany squad and at 33 this could be his last chance to a major tournament with his latest injury creating further cause for concern.
Reus was selected as part of national team coach Hansi Flick’s upcoming Nations League squad for matches against Hungary and England at the end of September.
Flick will now be left sweating on the fitness of the experienced winger who is one of the more experienced members of the youthful-looking Germany squad.
