Reading FC have today completed the signing of Lokomotiv Moscow defender Andre Bikey from Cameroom.

The 21-year-old will spend the rest of the season with the Royals having the option of a permanent contract next summer.

Manager Steve Coppell told the club's official website: "He did well in Sweden until he blotted his copybook by getting sent off in the last game, but we feel that happened because he was so determined to impress."

"He's a Cameroon international with good experience so we hopes he takes the opportunity and plays a full role in our season."
