SKY SPORTS READING MANAGER UPDATE
10/12/18
Reading have made contact with Portuguese club Vitoria de Guimaraes in the hope of luring their head coach Luis Castro to the Madejski Stadium, Sky Sports News understands.
Castro has so far refused to comment on speculation linking him to Reading but his reputation continues to grow, having guided Vitoria to fifth in the Primeira Liga, despite having little money to spend.
Since taking charge in the summer, the 47-year old has led Vitoria to five wins, three draws and three defeats in the league.
SSN understands one other candidate on Reading’s shortlist is former Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic, although Castro remains the strong favourite.
Reading sacked Paul Clement earlier this week after less than nine months in charge.
