Father-of-3, Arsenal star Jose Antonio Reyes, 35, dies with his cousin in car crash

Former Arsenal and Real Madrid star Jose Antonio Reyes has died in a car crash at the age of 35.
The footballer was killed along with his 23-year-old cousin while another man suffered serious burns when the vehicle they were travelling in overturned and burst into flames in Utrera, the town where Reyes was born, just outside Seville. He was reportedly on his way home to his wife and three children after training, having not been picked by current club Extremadura to play against Cádiz tomorrow, according to Spanish media. Spanish police said they believe Reyes was driving his Mercedes Brabus S550V at 120 miles per hour - some 50mph over the speed limit on the A-376 motorway near Alcala de Guadaira, outside Seville.
It is reported one of of the other people in the car, his 23-year-old cousin, also died while the third occupant suffered burns. Above: Reyes and Ms Lopez at their wedding
