Reading goalkeeper Adam Federici admits Royals old boys are delighted to see the club back in the Premier League.
Federici's phone has been red hot since Royals clinched promotion back to the Premier League after a four-year absence.
"I've spoken to Marcus and I've had loads of calls from the boys who were here for a while and have now left," said the 6ft 1ins shot-stopper.
"Shane Long has rung. It's great to hear from them all. People always talk about how close we are here and the boys that leave are always in touch. Maybe a few of them want to come back now?"
