Biography
Emanuel Reynoso (born 16 November 1995), sometimes known as Bebelo, is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or winger for Liga MX club Tijuana.
Career
Talleres
Reynoso had his debut in 2014, playing for Talleres when the team was competing in the third division. Talleres won the tournament in 2015 and got promoted to B Nacional, the Second Argentine Division. Reynoso had great importance on Talleres winning the 2016 Primera B Nacional, when the team finally was promoted to Argentine First Division, after 12 years. He was one of the most important players on that team and then had a great performance in 2017 in the First Division, scoring relevant goals against Lanús and Boca Juniors.
Boca Juniors
In February 2018, Reynoso signed with Boca Juniors. He reached the semifinals with Boca in 2019 Copa Libertadores.
Minnesota United
On 1 September 2020, Reynoso signed with Minnesota United FC. He made his Minnesota United debut on 2 September 2020 against Houston Dynamo. He scored his first goal for the club on 8 November 2020 against FC Dallas. With an assist in the 67th minute of the Western Conference Finals of the 2020 MLS Cup Playoffs against Seattle Sounders FC, Reynoso set a single season MLS record with his seventh assist of the playoffs. He was also the first MLS player in league history to record multiple three-assist playoff games.
Reynoso signed a three-year contract extension with Minnesota United FC in September 2022. After being cleared to return from Argentina despite a potential criminal trial, he failed to report to preseason training with the team in January 2023 and was suspended without pay by the league on 10 February 2023. Reynoso's absence was described as being related to "personal matters" by manager Adrian Heath, who was in contact with his family in Argentina; he later explained it was related to "a problem with [his] daughter" and unrelated to legal issues. Reynoso returned to training in Minnesota on 6 May, having missed 10 matches of the MLS regular season, and his suspension was lifted on 17 May. He played in 18 matches and scored 6 goals during the regular season.
He missed the first week of training during the 2024 preseason but joined Minnesota United FC for friendlies and scrimmages in Tucson, Arizona. Reynoso injured his left knee during preseason and was unable to play for the first three matches of the regular season, but appeared as a substitute for 31 minute against Los Angeles FC on 16 March. He returned to Argentina during a scheduled bye during an international break to obtain his green card for permanent residency in the United States, but failed to attend his appointment. Reynoso remained in Argentina for seven weeks and did not return to Minnesota United FC until early May; he did not return to training with the first team and the club publicly expressed their desire to transfer him.
Tijuana
On 30 May 2024, Reynoso joined Mexican club Tijuana.
Personal life
In March 2014, Reynoso was shot in the left leg.
He was arrested on 7 December 2021, for allegedly hitting a teenager in Argentina. On 21 May 2024, Argentine news outlet El Doce published a video purporting to show Reynoso showing off a bag of money while standing next to another man armed with a handgun who also shows off a bag of money. The video was reportedly recorded during Reynoso's visit to Córdoba.
