Ghana striker Kwesi Appiah has joined Championship side Reading on
loan until the end of the season.
The Eagles striker, who recently put pen to paper on a new contract
with the club, has joined the Royals until May.
It will be his first taste of Championship football since he featured
for Palace in the division during 2012/13. In total he has made 10
appearances for the Eagles since arriving from Margate in 2012, with
his last outing coming in August 2013 in a Capital One Cup game
against Bristol City.
During that time he had loan spells at Cambridge United, Notts County
and AFC Wimbledon, and featured prominently for the U’s earlier this
season in League Two when he scored eight times.
That form earned him a maiden call-up to the Ghana squad for the
Africa Cup of Nations in January, where he won four caps as he helped
the Black Stars reach the final, and is currently on international
duty ahead of friendlies against Senegal and Mali in France.
He will report for training with Reading upon his return to England,
and is the second Palace striker to spend time on loan at the Madejski
Stadium this season.
