Crystal Palace boss Neil Warnock has completed his first signing of the January transfer window after swooping for Reading right-back John Halls on a month loan.
Out-of-favour Halls has made just three appearances for Steve Coppell's side this season and spent a loan period at Championship side Preston towards the end of last year.
Warnock is seriously short of defensive options at the moment with both Danny Butterfield (groin) and Jose Fonte (concussion) struggling to be fit for Saturday's trip to Wolves.
Halls, 25, will go straight into the side to face Wolves at Molineux on Saturday.
