Reading beat out Fulham for Jordan Rhodes?

Reading are reportedly close to securing the signing of Huddersfield Town striker Jordan Rhodes.

Reports have recently emerged claiming that the newly-promoted Premier League side are keen on agreeing a part-exchange deal, which would see cash plus defender Sean Morrison going the other way.

While London outfit Fulham are also thought to be interested in the 22-year-old, it is understood that the prolific frontman will opt for a move to the Madejski Stadium, according to the Daily Star.

Rhodes netted a record 40 goals for Huddersfield last season.
