He also helped Arsenal win the FA Cup and Community Shield during his time at the club, as well as reaching the 2006 Champions League final.
Arsenal paid tribute to the Reyes, saying: "Our thoughts are with all his family, friends and team-mates.
"Jose, who was part of the Invincibles team, was a hugely popular figure at our club and will always hold a special place in our hearts.
"He represented the club on 110 occasions, scoring 23 times and made memorable contributions to our 49-game unbeaten run.
"Rest in peace, Jose."
After leaving the north London club, Reyes joined Real Madrid on loan in the 2006/07 season, winning the La Liga title and later joined neighbours Atletico before returning to boyhood club Sevilla in 2012, going on to lift three consecutive Europa League titles between 2014 and 2016.
As well as lifting three Europa League titles with Sevilla, he was also part of the Atletico Madrid squad that won the competition in 2010 and 2012.
Atletico said in a tweet: "The Atletico de Madrid family is in mourning. Our former player Jose Antonio Reyes has passed away. You will forever be in our hearts. Rest in peace."
He later played for Espanyol and then Chinese club Xinjiang Tianshan Leopard before returning to Spain to join Extremadura in January.
His last match was a 1-0 win at Alcorcon on May 18. Extremadura are due to face Cadiz away from home on Sunday.
