Alan Pardew is said to be looking for a new goalkeeper to provide back-up for Phil Whitehead, and maybe even push him for the number one shirt.
Available on a free transfer, after leaving Fulham at the end of his three year deal Hahnemann could be the perfect signing for Reading.
The 30-year-old joined Fulham in June 1999 for $150,000 from Colorado Rapids. After failing to break into the Cottagers side the 6ft 4in goalie was farmed out to Rochdale and Reading on loan last season.
