Reading have signed defender Zat Knight on a deal until the end of the season.
The 34-year-old former Fulham, Aston Villa and Bolton centre-half was a free agent having recently ended a spell in the MLS with Colorado Rapids.
Royals boss Steve Clarke told the club website:, "With the team currently in the middle of a really hectic schedule I felt it was prudent to bring in another experienced defender to help share the load. When I heard that Zat was back in the UK and looking for a club I felt he would be a perfect fit.
"He brings a wealth of experience, good attributes as a defender and good references from previous clubs. It's a sensible deal for both club and player and we look forward to Zat playing his part in helping the team to finish the season on a high note."
Reading, who face Watford on Saturday, are awaiting international clearance before Knight can make his debut.
