John Swift is reluctant to leave Reading next month.

The midfielder is a target for Leeds.

But the Reading Chronicle says Swift has turned down the opportunity to leave the club in the winter transfer window in favour of seeing out his contract at the club.

Swift himself is not interested in leaving Reading in the upcoming transfer window in light of Premier League interest in the player.

With Marcelo Bielsa desperately in need of new players amid the injury crisis, 26-year-old Swift is one of the names that regularly crops up in transfer rumours.

He has scored eight goals in the Championship this season and registered nine assists, but his form has not been enough to stop Reading from slipping to 21st in the table.
