There are suggestions on Twitter that Kenedy could be set for a loan move away from Chelsea today, with @TalkReading claiming that he’s heading to the Madejski.
Kenedy had a difficult time out on loan with Newcastle United last season, but has been brought back into the Chelsea first-team picture since Frank Lampard took charge.
Lampard has essentially wiped the slate clean for every Chelsea player, particularly the younger ones, which has so far benefited few more than it has Kenedy.
However, @TalkReading have stirred the pot this deadline day by claiming that the Brazilian is on his way out of Stamford Bridge and is set to be loaned to Reading.
Been told that Reading are set to sign Kenedy on loan from Chelsea. Wow. #readingfc pic.twitter.com/5rBggevHCR

It seems a little fishy to us, but the claim was enough to get Nizaar Kinsella digging, and even he couldn’t offer complete clarification on the potential deal.
Not sure about Kenedy to Reading FC. I had one person deny it and another unsure, who are close to those talks.
Reading have been splashing the cash, but it would be another surprise. Especially considering the great pre-season form of the former Newcastle loanee. #CFC

Time is fast running out for English clubs to do their business, so Reading will need to get their backsides into gear if they want to have any chance of making this one happen.
