“We know how important they are. We know how important they are,” Terzic said on Friday ahead of the Bundesliga duel with Hertha BSC. Both would still play important roles this season: “We still have so many tasks to deal with. We have to be able to rely on everyone and especially on Marco and Mats.” Reus returned to the starting eleven at the end of January after suffering an ankle injury and has played 142 minutes in the last three league games. Hummels only started in two competitive games this year. In the last two Bundesliga games against Freiburg and Bremen, the defender was only on the bench, as he was against Chelsea.
BVB wants reduction – Reus extension depends on salary
Terzic is said to be a big advocate of Reus’ extension, the 33-year-old is considered one of his most important contacts in the team. However, an agreement between the two parties on a new working paper is still pending. BVB wants to reduce the offensive player’s salary by around 12 million euros and pay higher performance bonuses for it, reported “Sport Bild” during the week.

The reason: the injury susceptibility of the 48-time national player. According to the magazine, talks between Reus and BVB have now been started after the player accused those responsible for sport internally at the end of the year of a lack of appreciation.
In addition to the issue of salary, which could become a sticking point in the negotiations, the term of a possible new working paper is also open. According to “Sport Bild” information, the 33-year-old Reus wants to play at the highest level for at least two more years, and a follow-up contract for continued employment in the club after the end of his active career is also up for debate.
At Hummels, however, planning for the future is comparatively less complicated. The 2014 world champion and club boss Hans-Joachim Watzke are said to have had long talks in Dortmund’s winter training camp. Hummels is open to a reduction in his salary, but still has to decide how long he wants to continue his career in principle.
