Reading's Coppell recalls striker Lita

Reading manager Steve Coppell has recalled striker Leroy Lita from his loan spell with Charlton. The 23-year-old scored three goals in eight appearances for Charlton, who saw their play-off hopes ended with a 1-0 defeat at QPR on Saturday.

With Reading battling relegation, Coppell made use of the 24-hour recall clause and said: "Leroy has been playing regular football for Charlton and will be raring to go. It was an obvious decision to make given the fact that we've not scored lately."

Reading boss: Steve Coppell
