🧵Sensible Transfers: #ReadingFC

Recently relegated Reading will be keen to bounce back amidst a backdrop of uncertainty

Here are 5 players they could look at based on YOUR suggestions

Comment what team + 5 positions I should do next! 👇

CB: Michael Hector

One player I believe could make a return to Reading this summer is Michael Hector. He’s out of contract following a short spell at Charlton, where he looked comfortable at the level

I’m unsure if wages would be a problem, but he’s a good defender, knows club

CM: Charlie Webster

Reading made good use of loans from Chelsea last season, and another I feel they could look at this year is teenage midfielder Webster

He’s yet to experience senior men’s football, but I believe he has the ability. Comfortable as either an 8 or 6

CM: Henri Lansbury

Reading may want to add experience to their side, so the signing of talented midfielder Lansbury could prove a shrewd one.

He’s still got heaps of talent despite ageing, & I believe in League 1 he’d look a cut above. Available for free after release at Luton

AM: Reece Smith

There is a wonderful hotbed of talent in #NationalLeague, especially close by to Reading. Maidenhead have a few top talents, the pick of which is youngster Smith

Versatile attacking midfielder, Smith is a confident, courageous midfielder. Capable as a 10 or wing

ST: Sam Smith

One of the hottest free agent properties in League 1. Smith may have aspirations of stepping up to the Championship, but if tempted to stay in L1 he’d be a top signing

Reading need a well rounded forward, & Smith is exactly that. Hit double figures in last 2 years

GK: Jamie Cumming

Chelsea links have been discussed in this thread, and here is another. Cumming has had 2 great loan moves in League 1, so he has experience at the level

The 23 year old has already played over 120 EFL games, is a great shot stopper and would be a good choice

ST: Divin Mubamba

The 2nd top scorer in PL2, I feel a loan move is now required for prolific forward Mubamba

A natural born finisher, one who is extremely cool in the final 3rd, Mubamba is well placed to make the jump. The geography works fairly well too
