Reading are trying to sign Norwich misfit Nelson Oliveira.

Portuguese striker Oliveira, 27, has not played this season for Championship promotion hopefuls Norwich.

The £5million signing from Benfica in August 2016 has had a turbulent relationship with City boss Daniel Farke.

He famously celebrated a late equaliser at Fulham on the opening day last term with a pointed dig at Farke.

But Championship rivals Reading, managed by Portuguese coach Jose Gomes, want him and talks are underway about a deal.

Oliveira has scored 20 goals in 70 appearances for Norwich.

He would add firepower to a struggling Reading side who beat Nottingham Forest last weekend for their first win in 12 games.
