Reading striker Simon Church has expressed his interest in returning to Leyton Orient on loan next season.

The 20-year-old enjoyed a successful spell at Brisbane Road last term, scoring five times in 13 appearances for the O's to help the club avoid relegation.

Church told the Waltham Forest Guardian: "Reading is my first port of call now. I want to play in the Premier League.

"It's important for me to break into the team, but if I'm not playing and the O's offer a loan, I'd love to go back there.

"I really enjoyed Orient. That's the first thing I say to anyone who asks. Other places I've been to, I didn't really enjoy, but Orient is a really good club and the fans are brilliant."
