Stephen Hunt admits he wants to leave Reading.

Media reports claim Everton are lining up an offer for Hunt and the 27-year-old intends to seal a transfer away from Reading this summer.

He told Sky Sports News: "My own situation is that I am happy at Reading, but in terms of my future, I've been loyal to Reading, maybe a fresh start would be good for me and the club.

"I think me and the club agree it is time for a fresh start. I don't know about that (Everton). I can't talk about other clubs."
