Scout report

Experienced headGoal-getting Attacking midfielder

M. Reus is a 37-year-old attacking midfielder at Los Angeles Galaxy, enjoying a standout season — 4 goals and 6 assists in 20 appearances, a Season grade of 43, top 31% of Major League Soccer attacking midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 11.8, ranking 423rd of 436 in the Major League Soccer. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter (76.4% of available minutes). He brings 0.62 goal contributions per 90 (0.25 goals, 0.37 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Reus.

Judged on this season alone, Reus graded 43 — a solid campaign that ranks top 31% of the 39 attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 4 goals and 6 assists in 20 appearances (0.623 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 32 → 43). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 12, 37th of 39 of the 39 attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 37 Reus is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.9 reflects that trajectory.

4 goals in 20 appearances (0.2 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 6 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 10 goal contributions (0.5 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 76.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.62 goal contributions per 90 (0.25 goals, 0.37 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.18 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Age curve. At 37, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 11.8, Reus carries the 37th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 39, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Los Angeles Galaxy finished 12th of 15) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.62 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
