Gio Reyna to miss 'weeks' after sustaining groin injury on USMNT duty

Bundesliga

VfB Stuttgart

Borussia Dortmund

<p>Gio Reyna is once again facing time away from the pitch. The attacking midfielder, who has struggled for fitness for nearly two years, has suffered yet another setback, Dortmund manager Nuri Sahin revealed. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/borussia-dortmund-gio-reyna-usmnt-groin-injury-chivas-cade-cowell/blt5a25bba3177b78be" target="_blank">He left the USMNT camp at the end of last week</a>, and didn't feature in either of the U.S.'s friendlies against Canada and New Zealand.</p><p>The USMNT struggled without him, losing to Les Rouges before stumbling to a 1-1 draw with the All Whites.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Reyna hasn't managed to stay fit for more than a year. The USMNT regular played just 280 minutes for Dortmund in the first half of the 2023-24 season, and managed 235 after an <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/usmnt-gio-reyna-future-plans-why-nottingham-forest-loan/bltdde6b011ce52683b" target="_blank">ill-advised January loan move to Nottingham Forest</a>. He finished the season with just one goal contribution.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Sahin spoke on Reyna's injury woes <a href="https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/41217853/usmnts-gio-reyna-weeks-injury-nuri-sahin" target="_blank">in a press conference</a>: "Gio Reyna will be out; he has picked up an injury with the national team," Sahin said. "He came straight back [from the national team] and I found him extremely sad; unfortunately, it will take a few weeks. And then I hope that he can continue on this good path afterwards."</p>

WHAT SAHIN SAID

<p>The attacking midfielder is set to undergo a period of rehabilitation from his latest knock. While his club return seems up in the air, Reyna will hope to be in contention for the next USMNT camp in mid-October - <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/ussoccer-officially-announces-hiring-of-mauricio-pochettino-as-usmnt-coach/blt9dc4b0fc128070c4" target="_blank">when new manager Mauricio Pochettino takes over</a>.</p>
