Last updated at 13:41 31 August 2007


Charlton have completed the signing of centre-half Sam Sodje on a season-long loan from Reading.

The 28-year-old, who was also a target for Sheffield Wednesday, will offer some much-needed competition in defence at the Valley.

Sodje will not join fellow deadline-day signing Danny Mills in the squad to face south London rivals Crystal Palace, however, after being sent off for the Royals in their Carling Cup win against Swansea in midweek.
