Reading have revealed the 18 stars who have travelled to the England training camp at St George's Park ahead of a pre-season friendly with European giants Benfica.

A 2-0 win over Colchester United at Bearwood opened Paul Ince's pre-season account with a win and a strong week in Burton-on-Trent is a good chance for the former England captain to work with his squad.

New signings Dean Bouzanis, Joe Lumley and Tom Ince are among those who have travelled, with the full squad as followed:

Kelvin Abrefa
Jokull Andresson
Femi Azeez
Dean Bouzanis
Scott Dann
Ovie Ejaria
Tom Holmes
Louie Holzman
Tom Ince
Lucas Joao
Kian Leavy
Joe Lumley
Tom McIntyre
Yakou Meite
Rashawn Scott
Luke Southwood
Dejan Tetek
Andy Yiadom

 

As well as the above, it is believed that a number of unnamed trialists are to join the squad as they try to earn themselves a contract with the club.

Romania striker George Puscas is to miss out on the trip as he rests after international duty.

Jeriel Dorsett, Mamadi Camara, Nelson Abbey, Michael Craig all signed new first team contracts last month but are set to remain with Noel Hunt and the Under-23s this week.
