Reading FC boss Ruben Selles has admitted that the current situation at the club is ‘not sustainable’.

The Royals boss has been linked the vacant position at Championship side Cardiff City and is amongst the top five in the bookies’ favourites to take the job.

Selles spoke to fans at a charity event organised by the Reading FC Former Players’ Association.

He said: “”The ‘project’ is some word that is not the case of what we’re doing right now we are surviving.

“In December last year, I forfeited my wages and there was no money to pay the technical staff fully before Christmas.

“I told my agent that you need to keep an eye in case somebody asks because we don’t know where this situation is going. I have my compromise; I think my compromise with Reading fans and the club cannot be doubted.

“When it’s about other clubs, I let my agent talk because if the moment arrives tomorrow, in two months or in a year, the first thing I would like to be is respectful to Reading.

“Right now, we are just surviving here, and I am giving 100 per cent every time but I don’t know what the future is going to be for Reading or myself because the situation is not sustainable in the long-term.”
