The Reading hierarchy have confirmed that there is a 'two-year plan' should the club stay in the Championship this season.

Currently operating under a transfer embargo, the club have not spent money on a fee since 2020 and have a limit of 25 squad players, as well as being forced to cut the wage bill.

Speaking at a structured-dialogue meeting with Supporters' Trust at Reading, members of the hierarchy confirmed that they are on track to come out of the restrictions in the summer, with a plan in place should the Royals be a Championship club still come May.

Sat 11 points clear of the relegation zone, and only five behind the play-off zone, Paul Ince's side have 18 matches remaining.

Speaking at the meeting earlier in the month, the club said: "The club’s forecast is for RFC to be compliant. Club are now striving to meet that forecast and remain compliant.

"Yes, these are challenging times but if this season can be survived without further sanctions or relegation then there is a two-year plan going forward. Mr Dai appreciates that the high wage and long term contract approach was not successful and supports the current approach."

The next meeting with STAR is scheduled for Thursday, July 13.
