Reyes looks forward
Spanish international Reyes has signed a new six-year deal with the English Premiership runners-up, keeping him at Highbury until 2011. Since joining from Sevilla FC in January 2004, the 21-year-old has scored 17 goals in 66 first-team games. "I am happy to have extended my contract and I'm looking forward to many more successful years with the club," Reyes said.
Clichy ambition
French Under-21 international Clichy, meanwhile, has put pen to paper on a new five-year contract. The 19-year-old has played 46 times for the Londoners since arriving from AS Cannes in August 2003. "I hope we will win trophies next season and I will have the opportunity to prove that the club were right to give me a new contract," he said.
