Reading set to land Bournemouth striker Glenn Murray

Bournemouth striker Glenn Murray has joined Brighton on-loan.

The Croydon Advertiser says the 32-year-old former Crystal Palace striker has made a season-long loan move to the Amex from AFC Bournemouth.

Murray, dubbed a legend by Palace boss Alan Pardew, scored 53 goals in 118 appearance for the Seagulls between 2008 and 2011 before leaving the south coast and making the inauspicious move up the A23 to sign for fierce rivals Palace.

Murray scored four goals in 22 appearances as the Cherries survived in the Premier League, but now he has returned to the south coast, signing a one-year loan deal with Brighton.

The move from Bournemouth to Brighton was touted a month ago.
