Striker George Puscas has joined Italian side Pisa on a loan deal from Reading until the end of the season.
The Romanian forward will play for Serie B side Pisa, where then is an obligation for them to make the deal permanent if they are promoted to Itay’s top flight.
Puscas became Reading’s record incoming transfer when he made the move from Inter Milan in August 2019 for around €10million Euros.
He started strongly with two goals against Cardiff City on his home debut for the Royals.
He also netted a sensational five minute hat-trick against Wigan Atheltic in November 2019.
He went on to score 12 Championship goals in his debut season for the Royals.
However, he has struggled for regular goals and performances since that.
He played 21 times for Reading in the league last season, netting just four goals where he was kept out of the side by the in form Lucas Joao.
Puscas went on a huge goal drought throughout this season which was finally broken in what turned out to be a consolation goal in Reading’s humiliating FA Cup third-round exit to non-league Kiddeminster Harriers.
Puscas has just one league goal to his name in the current campaign, in 24 appearances, which came in a 4-3 defeat to Huddersfield Town.
