Reyna’s name is a tribute to his father’s former Rangers colleague, Giovanni van Bronckhorst, who signed for Borussia Dortmund. The 17-year-old broke Christian Pulisic’s record for the youngest American to feature in a Bundesliga game when he made his Dortmund debut in January. In the first leg of their round-of-16 match against Paris Saint-Germain, he came off the bench and set up Erling Haaland for the game-winning goal, making him the youngest American to play and record an assist in the UEFA Champions League. Dortmund lost 2–3 to Werder Bremen in the DFB-Pokal last season, and Reyna scored his first professional goal in the game.
