Benfica sign Reyes


Recommended Posts

Benfica have clinched the loan signing of Atletico Madrid forward Jose Antonio Reyes.

The 24-year-old has joined the Portuguese club on a season-long deal after a disappointing campaign with Atletico.

Reyes joined Atletico from Arsenal last summer but failed to score a single goal in 26 appearances for the club.

He did not figure in Javier Aguirre's plans for the new season and Atletico have also given Benfica the option to buy Reyes at the end of his loan spell.

The Spaniard started his career with Sevilla before moving to the Gunners in 2004.

He spent two years in the Premier League and then linked up with Real Madrid on loan for the 2006/07 season.

Real were tipped to sign Reyes on a permanent basis but city rivals Atletico won the chase for his signature.
