Everton, Celtic target Long calm over Reading future

Reading striker Shane Long is staying calm over the frenzied transfer speculation swirling around him.

His 25 goals for the Royals, as well as his performances on the international stage, have alerted a series of suitors to his talent with Celtic, Newcastle United and Everton among the clubs linked.

Long said: "I don't know, we'll see what happens, really. I am just going to take a few weeks out now and relax and if anything does come my way, I'll have a look at it. We'll see what happens.

"But as it stands, I am a Reading player and I am looking forward to a Reading season unless that changes over the next few weeks."
