Barca have been unable to sign any new players in 2015 after FIFA banned them from transfer activity.
Arda Turan joined the club from Atletico Madrid in the summer but has been unable to play due to the embargo.
It was thought United were ready to bid for Reus after offloading Belgian youngster Adnan Januzaj onto Dortmund.
But no offer came in this summer and reports of a winter move have died down.
Liverpool are also thought to be considering a move for the Germany international following the appointment of his former boss, Jurgen Klopp, at Anfield this week.
Klopp has already said he wants to stamp his style on the Liverpool team, with Reus an integral part of the success he enjoyed while at Dortmund.
He missed the 2014 World Cup through injury and was thought to have agreed a five-year deal to join Real Madrid last January.
That move fell through, handing United hope they could land the midfielder last summer.
But Dortmund held on to their star man, with Barca soon free to plunge into the transferMARKET.
