Reading join queue for Blackburn's Hoilett

Reading have entered the chase for Blackburn Rovers in-demand forward Junior Hoilett, reports The Mirror. The Canadian star has been one of the few positives for Blackburn in a season that ended in relegation from the Premier League.

The 21-year-old is out of contract in the summer and is expected to leave before Blackburn start their campaign in the Championship.

But, any club wishing to sign him is likely to have to pay a compensation figure of around £5million as he is under the age of 24.
