The Palace Fan 3,402 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 It's gone a bit Pete Tong for Reading this week. It looks like the Chris Wilder deal is off and now they've been hit with multiple sanctions by the EFL. They're still under an embargo to, and only have ten senior players.

Lucas 3,827 Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Yeah, sounds a bit chaotic there. Problem for Reading is, they are a perceived as a bit of a dull club. At least with Derby, they could still attract players because of their name and support. I think there is a high chance Ruben Selles get's the nod there soon so it will be interesting to see what he could do there and what resouces are available to him financially. There is no doubt they will probably need a coach whose strngths are bringing through and utilising the youth squad. Chris Wilder is not that.

Administrator Stan 18,386 Posted June 26, 2023 Administrator Share Posted June 26, 2023 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66022653 Quote Reading are to appoint former Southampton head coach Ruben Selles as their new manager. The 40-year-old Spaniard will take over subject to him obtaining a visa, which the club applied for last week. Selles took charge of Southampton following Nathan Jones' departure in February but only won two of his 17 matches at the helm as Saints finished bottom of the Premier League. He succeeds Paul Ince, who was sacked by Reading in April. Selles takes over a Reading side that were relegated to League One last season after having six points docked for breaching the terms of a business plan for a previous profit and sustainability rule infringement. The club are currently under a transfer embargo from the English Football League resulting from that breach, the non-payment of loan wages and non-payment of tax. Selles' first competitive game in charge - Reading's first in the third tier since 2002 - will be at home to beaten play-off semi-finalists Peterborough United. "We now await a decision on his work visa before he is able to get to work on revitalising this Royals squad and recruiting players to be part of the rebuild at Reading," a short statement on the Reading website said. Reading's final five games of last season were under interim manager Noel Hunt, who stepped up from his role as under-21's head coach, but he was unable to prevent relegation to League One. The Royals have not yet released details about the length of Selles' contract or any coaching staff he will bring with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
