New Loan Signing to be unveiled tomorrow

Steve Coppell has revealed that a player will be coming on loan to the Royals by Tuesday and so should be available for selection on Boxing Day when Reading entertain the Dons at the Madejski Stadium.

There has been no confirmation of who the player actually is yet but names that who have already been linked are Bobby Zamora at Tottenham and Barry Hayles at Fulham. Reading have lately been looking very much on the light side upfront with Goater out injured meaning Forster has been playing upfront as a loan striker. So it is more the predictable that the player coming in is to be a striker.

Zamora would be a likely choice because of the fact that he played under Coppell at Brighton and that he is struggling to get a regular place in the Spurs starting eleven.
Obviously when the news breaks of who the loanee is you will hear it here.

Who do you think Reading will sign? Have your say on the Message Board.
