Vito Mannone has completed the switch from Sunderland to Reading.
The former Arsenal goalkeeper has signed a new three-year deal with the Royals.
Mannone is expected to become Reading's first choice keeper, after Ali Al-Habsi joined Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal.
Reading manager Jaap Stam told the club's website: We have some outstanding young keepers at the club but, with Ali leaving, we wanted some extra goalkeeping experience to join Anssi [Jaakkola] in the first team squad. And Mannone is a great goalkeeper.
"He has played at the highest level for both Arsenal and Sunderland and he has also played a lot of games in the Championship whilst on loan with Hull. And Vito has the abilities we are looking for - he is comfortable playing the ball with his feet and can make the right choices at the right time within our system."
SIGNED! We are delighted to welcome @VitoMannone88 to Madejski Stadium as he pens a deal @ReadingFC until 2020 - https://t.co/yVTOPTS5fxpic.twitter.com/rmSW3fVgL5
