WHAT HAPPENED?
The 21-year-old has made 12 appearances this season for Dortmund but just two of those have been starts. Now, Sky Sports Germany claim the attacking midfielder is "dissatisfied" with his lack of minutes under manager Edin Terzic and is considering an exit from the club. However, BVB will reportedly want at least €15-20m (£12-17m/$16-21m) for the United States international.

WHAT BORUSSIA DORTMUND HAVE SAID
The club's sporting director, Sebastian Kehl, said on Sunday about Reyna: "There's no point in complaining, but in the end it's all about stepping on the gas and proving yourself. Nevertheless, we will continue to talk. I can understand that a certain degree of dissatisfaction is now normal."
When asked if the former New York City youth player will leave Dortmund, Kehl added: "I can't say that yet."

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Reyna has made 119 appearances for Dortmund since making his debut at the age of 17. But his time with the German giants could be drawing to a close as his minutes dry up. Moreover, the loan arrival of Jadon Sancho may restrict his game time even more. If he wants to get more regular football, a move to linked clubs such as Marseille, Sevilla and Real Sociedad could be a good option for him.

WHAT NEXT?
Dortmund, who sit fifth in the league, are back in Bundesliga action on Saturday away to Koln. It remains to be seen if Reyna will feature in that match, or if he will be with the club when the January transfer window shuts in just over two weeks.
