Partick Thistle are expected to make Niall Keown their second signing of the January transfer window later today.
The centre-back, son of Arsenal legend Martin Keown, has been training with the Jags since joining them on their winter training break to La Manga.
He now looks set to join the Firhill club from English Championship side Reading on loan for the remainder of the campaign.
The 21-year-old, who has two caps for the Republic of Ireland under-21 side, has appeared twice for the Reading first-team in the past.
