Giovanni Reyna was expected to be available for Borussia Dortmund during today’s 3-2 victory against Eintracht Frankfurt, but Marco Rose surprised everyone and didn’t call him, not even to the bench, which means the offensive midfielder is going to miss at least one more week.

Gio Reyna has played only 5 games during the current season, three of them in Bundesliga, where he scored two goals and was meant to be Haaland’s companion on the offensive side, but a muscular injury has prevented him from playing since September.
