Reading manager Nigel Adkins has spoken to Stoke City regarding striker Peter Crouch.

Crouch is also a target for QPR, however they cannot move in the transfer market until they free up funds first by selling first.

Adkins is keen to secure a new target man, and this week ended his interest in Celtic striker Gary Hooper, and Charlie Austin is close to a move to Premier League new boys Hull City.

Quality young player. Its not completely unrealistic.

According to a Saints fan at work Eisfeld was at St Mary's for a medical not long before Adkins got sacked.

Would love this to be true, as he was quality when he played against us in the Capital One Cup.

[MouldyRoyal]

It's certainly not unrealistic, it's just that the source website is hardly trust worthy.

He's a real talent, Arsenal fans are very excited about what he could become.

Another kiddie?

After verbally agreeing to join Sheffield United's academy, 17 year old Mickael Partodikromo has been since persuaded by Reading to join up with their academy. He is due to fly over to England next month after meeting with representatives from the newly relegated Berkshire side and signing a contract earlier this week without the knowledge of the APFA.

Both Andy Smith from APFA and Tony Walmsley from Sheffield United recently gave statements about Partodikromo's move to Yorkshire. Sheffield United are in the process of taking legal advice on whether the verbal agreement with Partodikromo has legan standing and whether compensation is due.

[ZacNaloen]

He's from New Caledonia which is interesting if nothing else

[LightwaterRoyal]

In for Thomas Eisfeld.

[SPARTA]

In for Thomas Eisfeld.

Adkins tried to get him at Southampton. Might be a goer.

Christ, some people do put too much effort into their rumours. It does sound as if it could be true though, but why go there to post it?

Reading FC Chairman Anton Zingarevich has finally reached an agreement to buy Lechia Gdansk for �8m. Zingarevich entered talks to buy the Polish side in June last year but initially cooled interest when Chairma Bartosz Sarnowski leaked details of Zingarevich's interest to the media.

Talks the last few months have been promising with Zingarevich looking for ways to expand his sporting investments. He has also just finalised the purchase of Russian hockey team Atlant.

Through ownership of Lechia, Zingarevich is looking to bring Lechia to the forefront of the Ekstraklasa whilst using the polish team to support the growth of Reading Football Club. Thames Sports Investments, owned by Zingarevich but subsidised heavily by his father Boris Zingarevich (worth over £3. 4bn) will be investing heavily in the infrastructure at Lechia as well as increasing the playing budget. He wants to promote the intake of youth players, send developing players from Reading to Lechia, and vice versa, to experience a different league and use the polish side to help acquire European travel documents for talented players from outside of Europe.

Reading will be sending a team of coaches to work with Lechia's youth team as well Lechia staff coming to experience the infrastructure at Reading.

Additionally, Reading have sent scouts out to partner team Ocean City who are hosting trials for a select group of American youth players. Reading have recently brought goalkeeper Aleksandar Gogic who was recommended to them by Ocean City, and feel that there is untapped potential out there.

US men's u17 captain Shaq Moore recently spent time with the Berkshire side and an agreement is in place for him to link up with the team again later in the year.
