"A very beautiful career is coming to an end, a very full life," Reina told Movistar+. "I feel very fortunate for what I’ve experienced. 

"It’s been many years… I didn’t expect it, but I think the time has come and I feel like bringing it to a close here."

Reina moved to Como last summer from Villarreal. Among the clubs he played for have been Liverpool, AC Milan, Aston Villa and Napoli.
