Gio Reyna starts for Borussia Dortmund in their UEFA Champions League group stage match against FC Barcelona on Wednesday at Westfalenstadion. This highly anticipated clash marks a significant moment for the young midfielder, who has shown immense potential on the field.
This match will be Reyna’s first start of the 2024-25 season and his second appearance in the Champions League this year. He faced challenges early in the season, missing the first two months due to a groin strain incurred while representing the United States men’s national team in September, which he unfortunately aggravated in October.
Reyna returned to action on November 24, coming off the bench in Dortmund’s emphatic 4-0 victory over Freiburg. So far this season, he has accumulated 63 minutes of playtime without scoring or assisting, but his talent and determination remain evident.
At just 22 years old, Reyna is under contract with Borussia Dortmund until 2026, having signed a two-year extension in January 2024 before his loan move to Nottingham Forest. His journey in European football continues to unfold, and fans eagerly await his contributions on the pitch.
