Gio Reyna is not expected to play for the USMNT again this year after suffering a setback in his recovery from a groin injury, Borussia Dortmund manager Nuri Sahin said.

Gio Reyna's injury woes continue as the 21-year-old is set for another month on the sidelines. Reyna suffered a groin injury while training with the U.S. men's national team back in September and has not returned to action for club or country since.
