- Reyna swaps Dortmund for Gladbach
- USMNT recall remains key target
- Career reset after injury struggles
Reyna has expressed confidence that he will be part of the متحد States squad for the كأس العالم after sealing a summer move to Monchengladbach. The attacking midfielder and winger left بوروسيا دورتموند in a deal worth up to €7 million, aiming to relaunch a career that once promised superstardom before injuries and inconsistent form took their toll.
Once heralded as America’s brightest talent, Reyna’s rise stalled at Dortmund due to fitness setbacks and a lack of regular playing time. His transfer to Gladbach is seen as a career reset, with the الدوري الألماني side offering him a platform to rediscover his form and confidence. For the USMNT, where coach Mauricio Pochettino has only used him sparingly since March, his club performances will determine his international role ahead of the 2026 World Cup on home soil.
In an Interview with صورة the former Dortmund player said: “I believe I’ll be there. That was one of the reasons for my move. I’m in open contact with the coach. If I play well at Borussia, I’ll definitely find my way back to the وطني team.”
He added: “I’m now at a point where I want to take the next step and take my career to a higher level. I feel ready for it – and that’s why I came to Gladbach.”
Reyna was left out of Gladbach’s 1-0 defeat to Stuttgart but, after playing 70 minutes in a recent friendly against Schalke, the 22-year-old hopes to make his competitive debut against فيردر بريمن يوم الأحد.
“Whether I can play from the start is a coach’s decision. I felt good after the 70 minutes against Schalke – but a Bundesliga game is obviously something else entirely,” he added.
