Jose Antonio Reyes is on his way to Bolton. Well, not just yet but Reyes seems to be following the Nicolas Anelka Sulk Route out of Arsenal and we all know where that ends. Reyes – on his way to becoming a journeyman himself – has completed a £6 million switch to Atletico Madrid.
The 23-year-old was apparently keen to remain in Spain although Real Madrid, where he spent last season on loan, were not prepared to meet Arsenal’s valuation. An Arsenal statement said: “Everyone at Arsenal thanks Jose Antonio for his contribution to the club and wishes him the best of luck for the future.” On a separate note, this great picture comes from the gallery we told you about yesterday.
