Former Holland defender Jaap Stam has been linked with the manager's job at Reading FC. Reports from Holland claim the Dutchman has had talks with Royals about becoming the club's new boss. The 43-year-old has most recently been assistant coach with Ajax and is reportedly eyeing up a job in England. Stam has worked before with Royals new technical director Brian Tevreden.
