Reading have been linked with former Portsmouth and Rotherham United full-back Cohen Bramall.
The 29-year-old made almost a century of appearances for Rotherham United before moving to Championship Pompey in January, where he made just 12 appearances.
John Mousinho’s men survived in their first year back in the second tier, but Bramall is one of five players released at the end of their contracts.
According to The Deck, Reading and Colchester United- the League Two side where Bramall made over 50 appearances five years ago- are keen on acquiring the free agent.
Left-back is an area in which Noel Hunt’s side needs strengthening, with 17-year-old Andre Garcia the only contracted left-back in the squad.
Jeriel Dorsett, who plays there frequently, has been offered a new deal, one of 11 players out of contract who has been offered a deal.
In other Reading-related news coming out of Fratton Park, Tom McIntyre is likely to depart this summer.
The 26-year-old Academy graduate made over a century of appearances for his hometown club but opted to move to Portsmouth in 2024.
Finding gametime hard to come by ever since, the former Scotland youth international is on loan at Charlton Athletic, but again is failing to nail down a starting space for the League One play-off finalists.
According to the Portsmouth News, Mousinho feels his side is too ‘top heavy’ and will look to move McIntyre on if an acceptable offer is made, with the versatile defender still under contract beyond the summer.
