Royals' agents fees revealed
The Royals forked out £344,121 during the period July 2008 to June 2009 on 37 transactions as they rebuilt their squad following relegation from the Premier League.
Spending on agents' fees fell by more than £2million across the whole of the Football League last year.
On announcing the latest figures, Football League chairman Lord Mawhinney said: "Given the current financial outlook, it is encouraging clubs are being more circumspect in terms of their payments to agents.
"In fact, clubs only committed to pay an agent 6% of the 3,700 player transactions that took place during the course of last season. This is the lowest figure recorded in the five seasons since publication of agents' fees began.
"I would like to think that in pioneering the publication of agents' fees the Football League has helped bring this about."
