While it's still expected for Giovanni Reyna's Borussia Dortmund career to begin with the Under-19 side in August, this summer the U.S. U17 MNT standout is getting valuable experience with the Bundesliga side's first team.

Reyna is one of two players from the youth setup that made the trip to the United States for the team's two-game swing to Seattle and South Bend, Indiana. On Wednesday, Reyna entered the game in the first half of BVB's 3-1 win against the Sounders, playing around 30 minutes before coming out in the 62nd minute when Borussia subbed in a new starting lineup.

Check out highlights of Reyna's performance below.

BVB plays the second and final game of its trip to the United States against Liverpool on Friday night. Before making the trip to the U.S., Reyna scored a goal for the Under-19s in friendly action that's worth watching.

Ladies and gentlemen, take a bow 🇺🇸🔥
