Reading are rumoured to be readying a bid for Huddersfield Town midfielder Oliver Norwood.
The 23-year-old did not feature for the Terriers against Cardiff City this weekend despite being a key player for the club since joining from Manchester United in 2012.
Reports suggest that the Yorkshire club are prepared to cash in on the creative midfielder, having recruited Jacob Butterfield, Conor Coady and Radoslaw Majewski this summer.
Sky Sports News claims that Reading manager Nigel Adkins is keen to strengthen in the centre of the park and has identified Norwood as the ideal addition to his young, homegrown squad.
The Royals named a bench made up entirely of players from their own academy for the Championship win over Ipswich Town on Saturday.
