Sir John Madejski would love to see Reading Football Club compete in Europe.

The Royals sealed a return to the Premier League on Tuesday night with a 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest, and plans are already underway for next term.

Looking even further ahead, Madejski has revealed he and prospective club owner Anton Zingarevich would love to see their team compete in European action.

“I have put a lot of money into this football club, which I'm quite happy about,” he said. "And I hope the Zingarevich family will take Reading into Europe and beyond.

"It bodes well for Reading and I hope they will take the club much further. We will strengthen as we see fit. We have already strengthened and that will carry on.”
