Hamilton Academical have put their interest in Tom Hateley on hold after the Reading youngster was told to rest.
The 18-year-old defender has contracted mumps and has been advised to wait before joining the SPL new boys on a season-long loan basis.
However, Hamilton boss Billy Reid is confident of resurrecting the deal when Hateley is given the all-clear.
"Unfortunately the boy has been advised to rest by their medical people," he said.
"It's bad timing as we wanted to have a look at him, but I'm pretty confident we can get something sorted."
