Norwich City have signed striker Dave Mooney on loan from Championship rivals Reading.

The 24-year-old frontman has joined the struggling Canaries for a month.

Mooney has made the move in a bid to resume match fitness after a recent lay-off with an ankle problem.

The Republic of Ireland Under-23 international saw a previous loan spell at Stockport cut short by the problem, but proved his fitness by scoring a hat-trick in a reserve team game for the Royals in midweek.

Meanwhile, Norwich have sent teenage striker Kris Renton out on a month's loan to non-league side King's Lynn.
