Giovanni Reyna has seen turbulent times. A meteoric rise, a series of serious injuries, a season as a substitute but with important goals – and a brutal end for him and Borussia Dortmund.
Then there was the World Cup scandal with the United States. There is now a fresh start for the young player from Borussia Dortmund. BVB star BJ Callaghan nominated in his first match as caretaker coach. But the sword of Damocles hangs over the future of the Reina National Team.
Borussia Dortmund: A new start for Gio Reina in the United States
The fact that the United States has a new national coach is largely due to Gio Reina. Hurt by being ignored at the 2022 World Cup, his parents unearth a decades-old assault by Greg Berhalter against his current wife Rosalind (here’s the details). Scandal led to the temporary separation from the coach. Anthony Hudson took over on a caretaker basis and now BJ Callahan is the second caretaker.

The good news for this BVB gem: He depends on it, too. Callahan announced his first lineup on Friday. Not for any match, but for the Nations League semi-final match against Mexico. The USA and Rina won the first edition of the tournament in 2021, and now it is followed by the new edition of the final.
Is Berhalter “The Intimate Enemy” Back?
Reyna can now also hope to compete in the prestigious Gold Cup which follows in July. He’s still a prodigy to the fans, but his future with the US team could be turbulent. Because: Greg Berhalter can hope to return after the investigation against him is completed. If he leads the team to the World Cup on home soil in 2026, it will be complicated for Reina.
Reina had to go through such a traumatic experience at the 2022 World Cup that Berhalter does not think much of him in terms of sport. The avalanche triggered by his parents should not help the Borussia Dortmund star if Berhalter returns. on the contrary.

At the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Canada and Mexico, Giovanni Reyna will be 23 years old, and therefore in the prime of his football career. But given the uncertain future of his “sweet enemy” Greg Berhalter, it’s not certain if he’ll be allowed to come along and play.
