Reading expect Sevilla to sign permanently Daniel Carrico.
Carrico has impressed while away from the Madejski Stadium, helping Sevilla to a fifth-placed standing and a spot in the Europa League semi-finals.
Royals director of football Nick Hammond told the Reading Post: "I have a potential deal in place with Sevilla for him.
"I'm pleased because he's a fantastic boy and he's gone there and played very well. He's a very well respected player in their group.
"Sevilla have an option to buy. He's done very well, so the assumption would be that they will take that option up."
