Gio Reyna out “a few weeks” with groin injury

A new groin injury has put Gio Reyna on the sidelines at Borussia Dortmund.

Reyna has been ruled out “a few weeks” following his return to Germany from U.S. men’s national team camp, Dortmund manager Nuri Sahin confirmed Wednesday. The USMNT midfielder left USMNT camp early, missing out on a 2-1 friendly loss to Canada and a 1-1 draw with New Zealand.

Reyna, who has only made one appearance for Borussia Dortmund this season, will now endure another frustrating spell on the sidelines.

“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.”

Reyna, 21, spent the second half of last season on loan at English Premier League side Nottingham Forest, registering one assist in nine appearances. However, he finished the season with only 592 minutes of combined playing time in Germany and England, taking a step back in his overall development.

Injuries have plagued Reyna’s time with both Borussia Dortmund and the USMNT, forcing him out of 69 potential appearances for club and country. Now he is slated to miss the start of the UEFA Champions League schedule with Dortmund, in addition to several Bundesliga matches.

The Black and Yellow resumes league play on Friday vs. Heidenheim.
