Reading skipper Sean Morrison is close to agreeing terms over a new deal.
Morrison has been linked with Arsenal and Newcastle United.
He told the Reading Post: "Hopefully it'll be done in the next couple of weeks.
"It's been a slow process, but that's what these sort of things can be.
"It's been coming together for three or four months now, but we're coming to the closing stages. It's about getting things right and trying to lock down a few more years at Reading.
"I'm very happy here so I hope it's done soon. I feel wanted here. The manager likes me and the fans seem to like me. I love the place and it's a great club."
