Reading secured the loan signing of forward player Tom Ince from Stoke City on transfer deadline day, who joins the Royals until the end of the season. Meanwhile out of favour Liam Moore, goes in the opposite direction to Stoke and will be unlikely to feature for Reading again. The day also saw George Puscas join Italian Serie B team Pisa on loan for the rest of the season. With Puscas out on loan and Andy Carroll joining West Bromwich Albion in January after his short term contract with Reading, the Royals were in desperate need for a striker.
Ince can play either up front or out wide and will join a side desperate for goals to save them from what is looking likely to be a drop into League One at the end of this season.
Ince has scored five goals for Stoke so far this season but has seen his season mixed between first team starts and time spent on the bench. Thirty year old Ince comes to Reading hoping to go straight into the starting eleven. Stoke paid a massive ten million pounds for Ince in 2018 and he has had mixed success. Last season Ince was restricted to 14 appearances over the season, half on loan at Luton Town, without a goal. In the 2019/2020 season Ince clocked up 40 appearances and scored 3 times. Reading will be hoping Lucas Joao can stay fit and find new support from Ince.
