Coventry City striker Michael Mifsud was not the reason for coach Wally Downes’ trip to watch Greece versus Malta recently according to Reading manager Steve Coppell.

Coppell told the Reading Post: ‘He (Downes) wasn’t there for a short break!

‘We were looking at somebody – but it wasn’t Michael Mifsud.

‘We were aware of him in the summer when he was a free agent’ (although Mifsud actually joined City in January).

‘So why would I pay £5m for him now? But we never comment on potential transfer targets.’
