Reyna set for medical at Gladbach: this is how much BVB will pocket | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund and Borussia Mönchengladbach have agreed on a transfer of Giovanni Reyna. The 22-year-old is already scheduled to undergo a medical check with the Foals.

Giovanni Reyna is leaving Borussia Dortmund and joining Borussia Mönchengladbach. According to consistent media reports, an agreement between the clubs has already been reached, and the 22-year-old himself has also agreed to the move. As early as this Saturday, the American is expected to undergo the mandatory medical check in Gladbach, according to Sky.

There are still different reports circulating about the transfer terms. According to Sky, the fixed sum is around three million euros, with bonus payments potentially adding up to seven million euros. The WAZ, on the other hand, reports that the sum is over six million euros plus 1.5 million euros in bonuses. One thing is clear: a year before the end of his contract, BVB is securing a decent compensation. Additionally, BILD reports that the Dortmund team has secured a resale clause of around 15 percent.

For Borussia Dortmund, this marks the end of a chapter that began with great hopes. Reyna joined the Ruhr region in 2019 on a free transfer, was long considered a shooting star, and had a market value of over 40 million euros at the end of 2021. However, his development stagnated in recent years, with injuries and inconsistent form preventing his breakthrough.

BVB interested in Chukwuemeka and Fábio Silva

Last season, he only started three times in the Bundesliga. The club recently signaled to him that he will no longer play a major role in coach Niko Kovac's sporting plans. An indication of this: his number 7 jersey was given to new signing Jobe Bellingham.

A move to Italy to Parma Calcio was initially almost certain, but fell through due to differences over the transfer fee. Now, Gladbach has succeeded – also because they urgently needed reinforcement for their offense after the departure of Alassane Pléa (PSV Eindhoven).

For Dortmund, the departure also means a bit more financial freedom. Sports director Sebastian Kehl and managing director Lars Ricken have been working with a relatively small budget of 30 to 40 million euros so far. The sale could create new opportunities, such as for transfers of players like Carney Chukwuemeka or Fábio Silva, who are being discussed as desired solutions.

For Reyna himself, the focus is primarily on playing time. With the 2026 World Cup in the USA in mind, the national player wants to regain his old form in Gladbach.
