Orlando Sa has left Reading for Israeli outfit Maccabi Tel Aviv.

The 27-year-old has departed after just six months with the Royals, having signed from Legia Warsaw for £1m last summer.

Portuguese striker Sa had scored five goals, including a hat-trick in September's 5-1 win over Ipswich, but he moves for an undisclosed fee and signs and three-and-a-half-year deal in Israel.

Reading confirmed on Tuesday: "Everyone at Reading Football Club would like to wish Orlando the very best in his future career out in Israel."

Sa began his career with Porto and the Nacional in his native Portugal before a season at Fulham, but he made just three league appearances for the then Premier League team.

He moved to Limassol on a free transfer and then Legia Warsaw in 2014, where his 14 league goals in 19 appearances earned him Reading's attention.
