TRANSFER MARKET
Nottingham Forest hold talks with Borussia Dortmund to sign USA international Giovanni Reyna
Nottingham Forest want to sign Reyna before the end of the January transfer window.
Giovanni Reyna could be set for a move to the Premier League. As reported by David Ornstein of The Athletic, Nottingham Forest are in talks with Borussia Dortmund to sign Reyna before the end of the January transfer window.
Ornstein adds that a move for the USA international would be a loan deal with an option to buy included for Forest.
Dortmund deal
Reyna’s Dortmund contract expires in June 2025 and in 2023-24, he has yet to score a goal or provide an assist for the club, with head coach Edin Terzic only handing the Sunderland-born player two starts in the entire campaign.
The arrival of Jadon Sancho on loan from Manchester United means that Reyna was likely to feature even less under Terzic. The form of English talent Jamie Bynoe-Gittens (19) has also seen Reyna pushed further down the pecking order in the attacking department this season.
USA in 2024
The 21-year-old is now looking for game time ahead of an important year for the USA. Gregg Berhalter’s USMNT side have two major tournaments in the next three years, starting with the 2024 Copa América this summer and the 2026 World Cup in two and a half years.
