Russia striker Pavel Pogrebnyak will reportedly snub a permanent move to Fulham in favour of a switch to newly-promoted Premier League side Reading.
The 28-year-old spent a season-long loan from Stuttgart at Craven Cottage and was believed to be in talks with the London outfit over a permanent switch.
While Fulham boss Martin Jol was previously open about his desire to keep hold of the frontman, it is understood that Pogrebnyak has opted to sign a four-year contract at Reading, according to Sky Sports News.
News of the former Championship side's interest in the Russian emerged today, with claims that a contract worth £13m was close to being agreed.
