Dortmund's arrangement with Forest remains a short-term deal. Gio will represent the Reds for only six months. A purchase option is not included in the deal. As a means of emphasizing their mutual commitment to one another, Reyna and Dortmund extended the attacker's BVB contract by a further year. The 24-times-capped USMNT international's working papers in Germany now run through 2026.
"We are delighted that we were able to extend Gio's contract for another year ahead of schedule," Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl noted in a club statement, "He is a player who possesses enormous skills and in whom we still see a lot of potential. We have complied with his wish and now wish Gio maximum sporting success for his six months in England."
