Kebe doubtful for Reading

Reading will check on the fitness of Jimmy Kebe ahead of tomorrow’s Barclays Premier League clash with Blackburn at the Madejski Stadium after the winger picked up a knock on international duty with Mali.

Defender Graeme Murty (knee) and winger Glen Little (heel) both made comebacks in a reserve match but will not be considered for recalls.

The same applies to midfielder Brynjar Gunnarsson (groin) despite the Iceland international’s return to the training ground. Midfielder Emerse Fae remains doubtful following a bout of malaria.

Provisional squad: Hahnemann, Federici, Rosenior, de la Cruz, Ingimarsson, Bikey, Sonko, Duberry, Shorey, Oster, Harper, Matejovsky, Hunt, Cisse, Doyle, Kitson, Long, Convey, Fae.
