Na dan kada će se na stadionu Atletico Madrida, kluba čiji je dres Jose Antonio Reyes nosio četiri godine, odigrati finale Lige prvaka, španski fudbaler je poginuo u saobraćajnoj nesreći.
Ovaj vijest šokirala je fudbalsku i sportsku javnost u Španiji, ali i šire. Ubrzo nakon što je njegova matična Sevilla potvrdila da je fudbaler poginuo, stigle su realcije i poruke suosjećanja sa svih meridijana.
Oglasili su se Reyesovi bivši saigrači ali i oni protiv kojih je igrao. Među prvima se oglasio Sergio Ramos, a potom i Freddie Ljunberg, Thierry Henry, ali i njegovi bivši klubovi Arsenal, Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, kao i brojni evropski fudbalski velikani.
Everyone at Arsenal is devastated by the shocking news that our former player Jose Antonio Reyes has died in a traffic collision in Spain.
