If he were to do it over again, USMNT coach Gregg Berhalter said he would have never told a story about an unnamed player—later revealed to be Gio Reyna—revealing how nearly sent the young star home from the World Cup for having a bad attitude.
If he were to do it over again, the U.S. men’s soccer national team coach said Thursday he would have never told a story about an unnamed player—later revealed to be Gio Reyna—revealing how nearly sent the young star home from the World Cup for having a bad attitude.
The player was quickly revealed to be Reyna—a 20-year-old who’d barely featured in the tournament despite being widely recognized as one of the country’s rising stars. Reyna responded to Berhalter’s comments calmly and concisely in a statement, questioning why the coach would air out his own locker room’s dirty laundry.
Danielle Reyna said Wednesday she called the federation to tell them that Berhalter once assaulted Rosalind, then his girlfriend, in 1991 when they were college freshmen at the University of North Carolina. “I wanted to let him know that I was absolutely outraged and devastated that Gio had been put in such a terrible position, and that I felt very personally betrayed by the actions of someone my family had considered a friend for decades,” Danielle said in a statement.
“The worst part of it for me is, my heart aches for my wife, because it was her story to tell, if she chose to or not,” Berhalter said. “And that’s what just really, really saddens me.”
