Gio Reyna's Spot on USMNT World Cup Roster Remains Uncertain
Midfielder Gio Reyna has said it is "hard to answer if I should make the U.S. team," highlighting his own doubts about earning a place in the 2026 World Cup squad. Analysts echo his uncertainty; FOX Sports commentator Rob Stone called Reyna's chances “about a 30% chance,” noting his limited impact at the 2022 tournament – 52 minutes across two matches and no goals. At Borussia Mönchengladbach, Reyna has logged 19 appearances with only one goal and one assist, a modest return that has not solidified his claim. Competition from forwards such as Timothy Weah, Malik Tillman and Alejandro Zendejas further clouds his prospects. The USMNT coach must balance Reyna's creative talent against the team's high‑pressing, defensive demands as the final 26‑man roster approaches.
