After leaving Rangers, Claudio Reyna would go on to make over 100 appearances in the Premier League with Sunderland and Manchester City, but it is debatable whether either of the English clubs got the best out of the American international. During his time in Scotland, Reyna not only displayed his versatility, he scored goals on a regular basis to become a favourite with the Ibrox faithful, but his impact at both the Stadium of Light and Eastlands was limited, and the future captain of the United States was never appreciated south of the border. Reyna probably fulfilled a childhood dream of playing in the Premier League, but the most successful period of his club career came with Rangers and he likely wishes that he had spent more than just two-and-a-half years in Glasgow.
