  Rodgers keen on loan move for Bertrand

  

  Reading are lining up a move for Chelsea defender Ryan Bertrand, skysports.com understands.

  Royals boss Brendan Rodgers is hoping to lure the left-back to the Madejski Stadium on loan.

  Rodgers is a big fan of Bertrand having worked with the 19-year-old during his time on the coaching staff at Stamford Bridge.

  England Under 21 international Bertrand is highly rated at Chelsea and they are prepared to loan him out again as he is well down the pecking order in Carlo Ancelotti's plans.

  Bertrand has enjoyed loan spells at Bournemouth, Oldham and Norwich in the last few seasons and Chelsea are open to farming him out again so that he can gain some valuable first-team experience.
