Liam Rosenior will become the second player to quit Fulham in 24 hours with a move to Reading.
Coming the other way in a straight swap is midfielder Seol Ki-Hyeon.
Rosenior, 23, follows fellow defender Zat Knight in leaving Craven Cottage after a fall-out with Lawrie Sanchez.
The new boss has brought in replacement full-backs Chris Baird and Paul Konchesky.
