Newly-promoted Reading have been linked with a surprise move for Tottenham Hotspur striker Jermain Defoe.
The England international revealed on Thursday that he is frustrated with what he sees as not enough games at White Hart Lane.
Royals boss Brian McDermott will now try to lure the 29-year-old to the Madejski Stadium with the promise of first-team action, according to The Metro.
Defoe moved to Spurs for the second time in 2009 from Portsmouth in a deal worth around £15m.
