Ovie Ejaria has signed for Reading.

The former Liverpool loanee has become an instrumental part of the Reading side over the course of two loan spells in the last 18 months. 

An initial agreement had been in place to sign Ejaria at the end of last season, but financial constraints meant that the deal had been delayed as Reading negotiated with the Premier League champions.
