Reading's Tyler Blackett has rejected Reading's offer of a new contract and looks set to leave on a free transfer in the summer.

The Reading Chronicle understands that the 25-year-old, who is out of contract in the summer, has rejected Reading's attempt to tie down his long term future and will be free to agree pre-contract terms with another club.

Rumours have persisted this month that clubs including Turkish giants Fenerbache were interested in Blackett, who has played 114 times for Reading.
