Reading boss Adkins coy over deal for Southampton's Sharp

Reading boss Nigel Adkins is tightlipped over a permanent deal for Southampton striker Billy Sharp.

Adkins has worked with Sharp at Scunthorpe, Southampton and now Reading, but remained quiet over what his next move would be regarding the striker.

He said: "That will take care of itself in due course. All we can do is concentrate on what we can control.

"I've had Billy at three football clubs now - he's top drawer.

"So I think everyone is aware of the belief I have in him."
