Former Udinese and Swansea City boss Francesco Guidolin is reportedly a leading candidate to take over EFL Championship side Reading.

According to Gianluca Di Marzio’s website, Guidolin is ready to return to management after two years away and has already been sounded out by Reading.

The English club are in the Championship’s relegation zone and it is thought another defeat could result in the dismissal of Carlo Ancelotti’s ex-assistant Paul Clement.

The Royals’ sporting director is Italian executive Gianluca Nani, best known for his spells at Brescia, West Ham United – where he worked alongside Gianfranco Zola – and Pozzo-owned Watford.

Guidolin, who turned 63 last month, took Udinese into the Champions League twice and Palermo into the Europa League as many times.
