Borussia Dortmund revealed that United States winger Gio Reyna has encountered a setback in his recovery from a groin injury. This news comes after Reyna had to withdraw from the September friendlies against Canada and New Zealand due to a left groin strain suffered during USMNT training.

Dortmund's head coach Nuri Sahin confirmed that Reyna, along with forwards Karim Adeyemi and Julien Duranville, will not be available in the coming weeks. Sahin expressed that both Adeyemi and Duranville are anticipated to return after the November international break, mentioning that Reyna's situation is similar but with an expectant delay in recovery.

The 21-year-old Reyna notably featured in all three Copa America matches this summer but has seen limited playing time for Dortmund this season following a loan spell at Nottingham Forest. New USMNT coach Mauricio Pochettino has selected Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie, and Tim Weah for the upcoming friendlies against Panama and Mexico, while Tyler Adams and Sergino Dest remain sidelined due to injury.

Amidst the news, social media buzzed with suggestions, from concerns about Reyna's career path to comments on his potential return to MLS. Opinions varied from advocating patience to questioning the impact of Reyna's recurrent injuries on his professional future. Despite the setbacks, fans remain hopeful for Reyna's successful recovery and return to top form.

Stay tuned for more updates on Gio Reyna's recovery as he aims to hit the pitch post-November international break.
