Reports in Spain suggest that Reus can't understand how he has been overlooked for Suarez, who is two years older than he is.
It is suggested that Reus' agent Volker Struth had been in talks for several months over a move to the Catalan outfit, and believed a deal was well and truly on the cards.
However, it seems that new boss Luis Enrique is a massive fan of Suarez and has pulled rank over sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta, who was pushing the move for Reus.
Reus was keen to link up with Marc-Andre Ter Stegen at Barca having played with the keeper at Borussia Monchengladbach.
And Reus' annoyance is magnified by the fact that he had discouraged United from following up their interest because he preferred a move to Spain.
It is suggested that United had an initial bid for Reus turned down by Borussia Dortmund but failed to return with an improved offer after hearing of the player's preference.
Dortmund are currently insisting that Reus won't be allowed to leave, but privately the 25-year-old is now wondering about his next move.
Bayern Munich are known to be long-time admirers but it now remains to be seen whether United rekindle their interest in the German international.
