José Antonio Reyes was a gifted winger whose flair lit up Sevilla, the club where his talent first blossomed and to which he later returned in triumph. Direct, quick and left-footed, he arrived at Arsenal in time to contribute to the unbeaten Invincibles season.

He collected a remarkable haul of Europa League titles, his knack for the competition marking a distinctive career that also took in Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid. His death in a car accident in 2019 was mourned across the game.
