Blackburn have signed striker Dominic Samuel from Reading for an undisclosed fee.

Samuel, 23, has put pen to paper on a three-year deal with Rovers, who were relegated to Sky Bet League One last season.

"Rovers are delighted to secure the signing of highly-rated Reading striker Dominic Samuel for an undisclosed fee," the club said on their official website.

Samuel progressed through Reading's academy and made his first-team debut at Sunderland in a Premier League game in December 2012.

He made a total of 16 appearances for Reading and has also had loan spells at Colchester, Dagenham, Coventry, Gillingham and Ipswich.
