The American playmaker looks set to leave the German club this month, and plenty of teams from around Europe are showing interest in signing him

It seems that Gio Reyna's time at Borussia Dortmund is nearing its end, and it feels like a relatively unceremonious end, to be fair. A player who was once expected to join Christian Pulisic, Erling Haaland and Jadon Sancho as the club's next big-money export instead looks set to leave Signal Iduna Park in search of more playing time.

Dortmund have reportedly set their price, with reporting that the club wants at least €15-20m (£12-17m/$16-21m) for the U.S. men's national team star. Reyna, too, is prepping for a move, having recently hired Jorge Mendes, famous for previously representing Cristiano Ronaldo, as his new agent. It seems all involved are marching toward a separation.

Still, despite Reyna's lack of minutes this season, it's clear that there are plenty of teams that see something special in him. He's a player that many believe has boatloads of potential, but it'll be up to a new club to unleash it. For Reyna, that choice of club is huge and could very well determine how high his ceiling is as he marches on for club and country.

According to , Reyna is determined to leave and pursue a fresh start, and there's no shortage of suitors. GOAL is here to break down and rank the list of reported landing spots as Reyna seemingly gears up for a big January move…

This should be an easy one as, according to , Reyna joining Marseille seems unlikely. Reyna was reportedly offered to the French club, but Marseille are said to be against a move as it believes it already has enough players in the midfield, making a move for Reyna redundant despite his potential.

If that is how they feel, then it seems obvious for Reyna to stay away. Having struggled to crack the Dortmund midfield, the last thing he needs is a spot on a different bench or a fight to climb back up the pecking order. Given the other suitors, this landing spot seems like one to pass on.

A chance to join a French giant, albeit one that is really, really struggling this season. Perennially among the top teams in Ligue 1, Lyon have totally failed so far this season, and are currently sitting in the relegation zone at 16th. It's unacceptable, and you can be sure Lyon will be doing whatever it takes to dig itself out of this hole and avoid an unfathomable relegation.

Could Reyna be a player to help in that regard? You bet. A dynamic, young midfielder could be exactly what Lyon need in the short and long-term. The team obviously needs a rebuild, and there are few worse places to start than by adding a player that, despite his recent struggles, still has world-class potential.

Still, it's easy to see the risk involved. If it all continues to go sour after Reyna's arrival, he could be on the move again very, very quickly. Because of that, it may not be best to jump to a sinking ship as a savior in Reyna's situation.

Risky. Very risky. Forest are currently 15th in the Premier League, and Reyna's USMNT teammate, Matt Turner, has already had an up-and-down time since moving to the City Ground last summer.

There's also a potential points deduction hanging over the club's head, which could, and probably should, limit spending this month. Because of that, it's hard to see this one making much sense compared to other options on this list.

It's been a rough season so far for Villarreal, who certainly could use a bit of help. Right now, the club is 15th in La Liga, having scored 27 goals so far this season. That's good for the middle of the pack. What isn't, though, is the number of goals conceded, 41, tied for second-worst in La Liga through just 20 games.

Because of that, it's easy to see Villarreal targeting some defensive help in hopes of surviving this season. That said, Reyna is a long-term buy, a player who should contribute before being sold for a big profit.

Reyna seems like a perfect fit for La Liga given his technical ability, but there are better options on this list if he does want to go to Spain.
