Gio Reyna suffers injury setbackMidfielder out until end of NovemberBattling through groin injuryWHAT HAPPENED?
Borussia Dortmund confirmed Friday that U.S. men's national team midfielder Gio Reyna has sustained a setback in his return from a groin injury he picked up in early September. As a result, he will not return to the pitch for club or country until after the November international break.

Reyna sustained the initial injury in USMNT camp in September, forcing him to pull out of the window and return to Germany. Now, he's set to remain on the sidelines even longer.
“We expect that Juju (Julien Duranvile) and Karim (Adeyemi) will be available again after the international break in November. Unfortunately, Gio had a setback and it looks similar for him,” BVB manager Nuri Sahin said Friday.
The 21-year-old appeared in all three matches for the U.S. at Copa America 2024, but has only made one substitute appearance for the Black and Yellow this season.
DID YOU KNOW?
Reyna's last start at the club level in a competitive match was on April 21, a 2-0 loss to Everton while on loan at Premier League side Nottingham Forest. During his six-month spell there, he earned just two starts.
AFPWHAT NEXT FOR REYNA
The USMNT will play their first matches under new coach Mauricio Pochettino against Panama and Mexico in a pair of international friendlies this October window, before turning their attention to November. They'll compete in the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinals against an opponent TBD.
Reyna won't be a part of either camp, as a result of his injuries.
