Congratulations, Andy Rinomhota! The midfielder has put pen to paper and agreed to extend his stay with #ReadingFC until 2027. 👏

Now 15 clubs have made moves. Imagine the club will have wanted someone in before the renewal deadline. Can’t imagine Leam is too impressed either. #readingfc
✍️ So far 11 clubs who’ll be playing football in League One have made one or more signings ahead of the 2026/27 season. 21 signings overall in the division. Still early doors but when do we expect #ReadingFC to make their first move?

These sales paired with the amount of money we have saved in buying players by utilising the academy and the future sell ons we’ll have for the majority here. That paired with the constant dismissal of an academy downgrade by ownership. Let’s hope it’s not true. #readingfc
Huang understands that the next PGAAC evaluation will be in July this year and #readingfc will likely lose cat 1 academy status.

Stumbled across a player who we hadn’t heard of in years, Tyrell Ashcroft. Started 4 league games in the Championship for #ReadingFC before move to Spurs. In the 4 years since, he is yet to play a single minute of senior football. Wonder how he’d be doing if he stayed. Only 21.

Now confirmed that Tyrell Ashcroft will be released by Tottenham this summer. Could have had a tonne of Football League games under his belt with #ReadingFC by this point but would never begrudge him the move to a Premier League club.
We can confirm the departures of ten players from our Academy following the conclusion of the 2025/26 season. Under-21s players Pele Arganese-McDermott, Tyrell Ashcroft, Leo Black, Dante Cassanova, Matthew Craig and Calum Logan have left the club. From our Under-18s, we can confirm the departures of Jamel Beggs, Samal Bangura, Leon Myrtaj and Elijah Upson. Thank you to all departing players and their families for their contributions to the club and all the best for the future 🤍 🔗 thfc.pro/4xg1pXb

With Ritchie now gone and assuming that both Rino and Abrefa re-sign. We’d need: • Starting RB • Backup CB • Starting/Rotational LB • Starting AM • Backup AM • Starting Winger • Backup/Rotational ST Not too far off, hopefully we recruit well. #readingfc
💬 Jacobson on #ReadingFC transfers: “We don’t need to sign 10, we probably need 5 or 6 that are going to improve our starting 11.” “We’ve got offers on tables at clubs, players. We’ve got a few players out of contract that we’re close to doing stuff with.” Via @ElmParkRoyals

Ritchie second most assists for us last season (6) which helped #ReadingFC win 11 points in League One. Underwhelming overall but impact was there in limited minutes. Need to bring in quality replacement who’ll contribute throughout the whole season. All the best. Matt. 👋
Matt Ritchie has called time on a career spanning nearly two decades in the professional game. After success across all levels of English football, he joined the Royals last summer and has been an invaluable presence in our squad. Congratulations on a brilliant career, Matt. 👏

Bournemouth are set to appoint former player Matt Ritchie as technical director. [@BmthEchoSport] A move best for both parties. #readingfc
