Madejski determined to find Reading's "billionaire"

Reading chairman John Madejski will step up plans to find a billionaire to takeover the club if they survive tomorrow's relegation battle.

"I think clubs always have to have ambition and my ambition would be, if we're lucky enough to stay in the Premiership, to be even more earnest about trying to find a billionaire to take over Reading so that we can join the elite clubs," said Madejski. "This is my 19th year and obviously I will stay with the club as long as I have to. But, if I could find a suitable buyer that had very deep pockets and who had the right intentions, then I would be happy to step down."
