Reading to up bid for Blackpool's Thomas Ince?

Reading are reportedly prepared to test Blackpool's resolve once more by increasing their offer for winger Thomas Ince.

The Premier League outfit are believed to have had a bid in the region of £7m rejected by the Championship club, who are unwilling to sell the 20-year-old.

Despite their rebuffed offer, the Royals are ready to lodge a bid of around £8m to prise Ince from Bloomfield Road before the close of the transfer window tomorrow night, according to the Reading Post.

Liverpool are also thought to be in the running to re-sign the winger, who left Anfield in 2011.
