Reading manager Steve Coppell is hoping that winger Jimmy Kebe can establish himself as a first-team regular in the coming months.
The 24-year-old has started both Championship games so far this season and was impressive in the 2-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle at the weekend.
Coppell told the club's official website: "Jimmy is looking okay, he's definitely got something about him and he gives us a threat from the right wing.
"He's had six months to get to know us and he's certainly enjoying playing at the moment.
"We hope that he continues to learn his trade, he was playing in the French second division when he joined us, so he's still got to come to terms with English football, as is always the way.
"In the longer term we don't know what we'll get from him. What will happen when the weather turns and the pitches are bobbly? He's still got to answer those questions."
