Reynoso has played his whole professional career with Guadalajara, but went through a short loan spell at Swiss club Grasshopper Club Zurich in 1999. He is known for his great defensive skills.

During the Clausura 2006 tournament, Reynoso played and started in all 17 games.[1] He completed 12 of them and entered as a sub in 3 games. He received 5 yellow cards and scored 0 goals. He scored a vital goal in the second game of the Copa Libertadores two-game series against Independiente Santa Fe of Colombia, where he scored in the 6th minute. Thanks to Reynoso's goal, Chivas advanced to the quarterfinals of the South American tournament by an aggregate score of 4-3. (Chivas won the first game 3-0, but lost the second 3-1). Reynoso has become a vital part of the Chivas defense with his great playing and defensive skills. Reynoso was the team Captain for the Peace Cup, because the regular team Captain Ramon Morales and Vice-Captain Omar Bravo were in Venezuela playing with the Selección de fútbol de México (Mexico national team) at Copa America. He captained the game in which Chivas beat Racing de Santander 5-0.

Reynoso is known by many Mexican soccer commentators as "Samson", because of his long and curly hairstyle.

In a 2009 Libertadores Santander cup game against Everton from Chile, Reynoso spat and sneezed in the face of opponent Sebastián Penco and told him he had swine flu. Reynoso later apologized for the incident, but his actions were recorded and made headline news all over the world.[2] In 2011, in a game between Guadalajara and Manchester United F.C Where he scored a header, to put the score 3-1
