Reading are interested in signing Arsenal Academy full-back Brandon Ormonde-Ottewill, according to reports.
The 26-year-old failed to make an appearance for the Gunners but was a regular for two years at Swindon Town before moving to the Netherlands.
Playing in the second tier of Dutch football since 2017, he has been at Excelsior since 2020 where he has gone on to make nearly 50 appearances.

The left-back earned promotion to the Eredivisie via the play-offs last season and there is a possibility that he stays abroad, but it is said by BerkshireLive that the Royals, Burnley and Ipswich Town are keeping tabs.
Having played for England Under 16s and Under 19s, he has pedigree in the Englush game.
The club have been linked with a return move for Baba Rahman, who spent last season on loan at the SCL Stadium from Chelsea.
However, the same outlet report that no approach has yet been made regarding the Ghanaian's future.
