Matt Miazga has rejoined Reading on a season-long loan following his successful spell at the club last season, the Royals have confirmed.

The 24-year-old will spend the duration of next season with the Royals after playing a key role in the club's survival effort during the second half of last season.

Miazga was highly impressive in his 18 appearances for Jose Gomes' resurgent side, and he also formed a solid centre-back partnership with Reading skipper Liam Moore in the process.

He has now sealed a return to the Madejski Stadium just three days after celebrating his 24th birthday, and it has seen him become Reading's fourth signing of the summer.

The Royals confirmed the announcement via their Twitter page on Wednesday morning:

Plenty of Reading supporters responded to the news with much excitement, as Miazga's exceptional form last season had left Royals fans desperate to see him wearing the blue and white stripes again next term.
