US midfielder Gio Reyna has joined French club Strasbourg, transitioning to Ligue 1 as he seeks to further his professional career in Europe.

United States midfielder Gio Reyna is set to embark on a new chapter in his career after signing with French club Strasbourg from Borussia Mönchengladbach. This move comes as Reyna looks to revitalize his performance following a challenging season in Germany.

Transfer Details

Strasbourg announced on Tuesday that they have secured the 23-year-old Reyna on a five-year contract. The transfer fee for the midfielder is reported to be 3 million euros, equivalent to approximately $3.5 million.

Recent Performance

Reyna's time at Mönchengladbach was marked by a subdued performance, where he managed to score only once in 20 appearances. This followed a more productive stint at Borussia Dortmund, where he had established himself as a promising talent. Despite his struggles at the club level, Reyna showcased his abilities on the international stage by participating in all five matches for the U.S. during the World Cup, including a notable goal in the team's opening 4-1 victory over Paraguay.

As Reyna joins Strasbourg, he aims to regain his form and contribute significantly to his new team in the upcoming season.
