Reading Record Buy Aluko Set To Pen Deal With Chinese Club Beijing Renhe

Published: February 20, 2019

Chinese Super League side Beijing Renhe are on the verge of announcing the signing of Nigeria international Sone Aluko, according to reports.

Football.London says the Reading forward is now in China to complete a move to Beijing Renhe.

The deal is expected to go through as Beijing Renhe are owned by Reading owners Dai Yongge and Dai Xiu Li.

Aluko was left out of the Royals squad in their 4-0 loss to Sheffield United last weekend amid speculation linking him with an exit from the club.

The 30-year-old became the most expensive player signed by Reading when he joined from Fulham in the summer of 2017 for a transfer fee in the region of seven million pounds.

Aluko has scored four times in 58 appearances for Reading in the Championship and lists Aberdeen, Hull City, Rangers, Blackpool and Birmingham City as his previous clubs.
