Funnily ebpnough, Reading’s supposed rival to Pedro’s signing is UD Almeria in Spain and supposedly Jose Gomes has just been appointed as their new boss (though can’t find anything to substantiate this bit aside from the link below)....

Almería will have a new coach for the playoffs. The current coach of the indálico team, Mario Silva, will stop being coach of the Andalusians in the next few hours. His position will be occupied by another Portuguese, José Gomes, who will be in charge of trying to get the desired promotion to the First Division. The new trainer is scheduled to conduct his first training this afternoon.
The owner of the rojiblanco team, Turki Al-Sheikh, has not trembled in the pulse of dismissing one of his trusted men. It must be remembered that Mario Silva performed the functions of Technical Director of the Academy. In this way, Gomes will be the fourth coach to lead the team from Almería since the new ownership took over the team.
Mario Silva took the reins of Almería, being third, after occupying the position of Guti. He ended up qualifying him for the playoffs, although not with the expected result and that is that on the last day they lost the third position. The Portuguese coach has been in office for just a month.
In the seven games that Silva sat on the Andalusian bench he got eight points from the 21 that were at stake. Which translates into two wins, the same number of draws and three losses.
