Reading FC will host Premier League West Ham United in a pre-season friendly for the second consecutive season.
David Moyes’ team will make the trip to the Select Car Leasing Stadium on Saturday, July 16 (3pm kick-off).
The Hammers ran out as 3-0 winners when they travelled to Berkshire to face Reading in pre-season in July 2021.
The Irons enjoyed another exceptional campaign under Moyes which ended with them falling just short in their Europa League adventure.
Having beaten serial European winners Sevilla and French giants Lyon, West Ham were knocked out in the semi-finals by German side Eintracht Frankfurt who went on to lift the trophy after defeating Rangers on penalties.
West Ham secured European qualification after finishing seventh in the Premier League in the 2021/22 season.
Ending the season with 16 wins, eight draws and 14 defeats, the Hammers finished on 56 points which saw them qualify for the Europa Conference League after they were pipped to a Europa League spot by Manchester United on the final day of the season.
Paul Ince’s men will also face National League team Maidenhead United at Bearwood Park in a behind-closed-doors match on Tuesday, July 12 (1pm kick-off).
Tickets for the match against West Ham will be announced by the club in due course.
