Why You Should Watch Reading: We’ve Got Joel Pereira In Goal

Ross zooms in on Reading’s star ‘keeper, who recently signed a new deal, in his latest video.

Joel Pereira’s staying in Reading’s goal! The TTE player of the season signed a new contract recently, keeping him with the Royals until 2028, guaranteeing our net its safest pair of hands in years.

So what better topic for Ross to cover in his latest video than the man himself? In the latest episode of Why You Should Watch Reading, Ross discusses:

• The nine goals that Pereira effectively earns Reading across the course of a season
• Why the fans are partly responsible for him re-signing

...and asks if a cat would make a good goalkeeper.

So get your goalie gloves on and join Ross in a fancy-dress episode of WYSWR!

‘Why You Should Watch Reading’ is something a little different: it’s a more laid-back look at the pros and cons that make our team tick.

Ross has previously looked at the world-class academy, Ben Elliott’s potential and how Reading have defied ownership chaos in other videos, all of which you can find on our YouTube channel.
