Borussia Dortmund's teenage attacking midfielder Giovanni Reyna has signed a contract extension that will keep the United States international at the club until 2025, the Bundesliga outfit said on Friday.

"Gio's development in recent months has been incredible. He'll definitely be an important part of Borussia Dortmund's sporting future," the club's sporting director Michael Zorc said in a statement on their website https://www.bvb.de/eng/News/Overview/Borussia-Dortmund-extend-Gio-Reyna-s-contract-until-2025.

"BVB are a big club that can challenge for titles and are in all the important competitions... I have already learned a lot in Dortmund and I want to learn a lot more in future," he said. Dortmund are third in the Bundesliga standings after seven games this season, three points behind champions Bayern Munich, and visit Hertha Berlin in Saturday's late game.
