 Benfica sign Reyes from Atletico on loan

Benfica have completed the signing of Spain winger Jose Antonio Reyes on a one-year loan deal.

The 24-year-old makes the move from Atletico Madrid, with the Lisbon club also having the option to buy the player at the end of his loan spell.

Reyes is the fourth summer signing for Benfica coach Quique Sanchez Flores, and having already won league titles with Arsenal and Real Madrid, the player is keen to add to those successes in Portugal.

'I come here with the ambition of being a champion,' Reyes told www.slbenfica.pt.

'They have given me this chance and I want to make the most of it.'
