• Letter "I know that from heaven you will take care of me"

Just 20 days after the tragic death of José Antonio Reyes in a traffic accident, his son, José Reyes López, reached the lower categories of Real Madrid from Leganés , a quarry of which he had been part of for three years. Specifically, he landed in Infantil B, a team with which on Sunday he has lifted the title of champion of the XXIV edition of the LaLiga Promises International tournament, after going back to Sevilla in a final in which he scored four goals.

He was the great protagonist of the day. And of the tournament. Sevilla put the final on track with an advantage of two goals, when the eleven-year-old striker appeared in the game, who at his young age is already able to dazzle with all his skills on the field of play: foul goal, finish off Small area, penalty and shooting from the front.

His mother and grandfather, on the verge of crying, enjoyed José's exhibition and jumped into the field at the end of the meeting to merge into a hug. Towards them were the dedications of the goals that little José signed throughout the weekend.

At the end of the match, he received the Golden Boot by scoring nine goals in six games (six goals between the semi-final and the final) and then picked up the trophy that crowned him as the best player in the championship, which in this edition has been held in Emirates United Arab.

Before the dispute of the match, Sevilla honored him with the delivery of a shirt with the number ten on his back, which his father wore for so many years at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium. Reyes was a canterano of the Spanish team and debuted with only 16 and 151 days with the first team, becoming the youngest player in the history of the club to play a game with the first team. But it was not until his return in January 2012 when he began to consecrate his legend: as captain he conquered three consecutive titles of the Europa League.
