Howard expresses positivity about a potential Reyna recovery amidst speculation of a move to Parma
In the world of soccer, the name Gio Reyna has been making waves, especially among fans of the United States Men's National Team. The 22-year-old midfielder, who rose to prominence at a young age, has been a subject of intense speculation recently, with Italian top tier side Parma reportedly close to acquiring him.
Reyna's journey began at Borussia Dortmund, where he was hailed as the United States' next big thing at just 16. His early successes in Germany and flashes of brilliance for the U.S. have left an indelible mark. However, his career has taken a somewhat unexpected turn.
After contributing 4 goals and 5 assists in 32 Bundesliga appearances, Reyna found himself moving to another German club, Borussia Mönchengladbach, permanently ending Parma's pursuit of him. Despite earlier talks with the Italian Serie A team, it seems that Reyna is not likely to join them in the near future.
If the move to Parma does happen, it is uncertain what shape Reyna is in due to lack of recent playing time. Landon Donovan, a former U.S. Men's National Team star, has expressed concern about Reyna's current situation, suggesting that he is at a crossroads in his career.
Tim Howard, another former U.S. Men's National Team goalkeeper, believes a potential move to Parma could be the right elixir for Reyna's recent career struggles. He emphasises that if Reyna goes to Parma, he needs to hit the ground running to maintain his position in the team.
The stakes are high for Reyna, as he aims to secure a spot in Mauricio Pochettino's 2026 World Cup squad. To have any chance of making it, he needs to play regularly. Reyna made 4 starts in the Bundesliga over the last two seasons, along with 2 starts during a loan spell with Nottingham Forest in the English Premier League.
The U.S. Men's National Team is gaining attention in European soccer seasons, with the World Cup in North America next summer. If Reyna performs well at Parma, he could be a strong contender for the squad. This potential move to Parma is renewing hope that Reyna can set his career back on track.
