Strasbourg have signed USMNT midfielder Gio Reyna from Borussia Monchengladbach for a fee of up to €4 million ($4.6 million). The 23-year-old joins on a five-year contract through 2031, marking his fourth club in as many seasons after struggling for regular minutes due to injuries. Reyna made 19 appearances for Gladbach last season and has not played more than 625 league minutes since 2020-21. He was part of the USMNT's 2026 World Cup squad, scoring once in five appearances before the team exited in the round of 16. Strasbourg, owned by BlueCo (Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital), finished eighth in Ligue 1 last season.
Source report
Strasbourg have completed the signing of U.S. men's national team midfielder Gio Reyna from Borussia Mönchengladbach for a fee of up to €4 million ($4.6 million).
The Athletic reported on Thursday that Reyna, 23, was in talks about a potential move to Strasbourg. The French club confirmed his arrival on Tuesday on a five-year deal that runs through 2031.
The move means Reyna will represent a fourth different club in as many seasons, departing Gladbach after just one year in Germany.
Club Background
Strasbourg finished eighth in Ligue 1 last season. The team is owned by BlueCo, the consortium led by U.S. businessman Todd Boehly — who owns minority stakes in the L.A. Dodgers, L.A. Lakers, and L.A. Sparks — and Clearlake Capital, which bought Chelsea in 2022 and made Strasbourg part of its multi-club model a year later.
Reyna's Recent Struggles
Reyna has struggled for regular minutes in recent seasons following a series of injuries. He was limited to 19 appearances for Gladbach last season and has not played more than 625 minutes in the league since 2020–21, when he was still a teenager breaking through at Borussia Dortmund.
He spent the second half of the 2023–24 season on loan at Nottingham Forest before a permanent move to Gladbach from Dortmund in the summer of 2025, in an attempt to secure regular minutes ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
World Cup Involvement
Reyna was named in the USMNT's World Cup squad despite his lack of playing time. He scored once — a trivela goal in a 4–1 win over Paraguay — in five appearances at the tournament before his side exited at the last-16 stage.
At the World Cup in Qatar four years earlier, the former New York City FC academy prospect was nearly sent home for disciplinary issues after learning he would not start the World Cup opener against Wales.
International Record
Reyna has been capped 43 times at international level, scoring 10 goals.
