Reyes completes Atletico switch

Atletico Madrid have reached an agreement to sign Jose Antonio Reyes from Arsenal for an undisclosed fee.

A statement on the club's official website reports that Reyes has signed a four-year deal and will be unveiled at 10am on Tuesday.

The 23-year-old Spain forward will then join up with his new team-mates ahead of the pre-season Amsterdam tournament at the weekend.

Reyes spent last season on loan at Real Madrid, where he scored on the last day against Mallorca to help seal the win that brought the Primera Liga title back to the Bernabeu for the first time in four years.

Unhappy with the climate in England, Reyes wanted to return to Spain, but an agreement between Arsenal and Real could not be reached.

Reyes joined Arsenal from Sevilla in January 2004 and made a total of 110 appearances for the Gunners, scoring 23 goals.
