QPR ‘very likely’ to sign Polter, says coach

Mainz coach Christian Heidel has told German media that QPR are “very likely” to sign Sebastian Polter from the Bundesliga club.

Polter, 24, is one of a number of forwards Rangers have been considering as a possible signing ahead of the new season.

A former Germany Under-21 international, he spent last term on loan at second-tier outfit Union Berlin after falling out of favour at Mainz.

He was on Werder Bremen’s books as a youngster and has played for Wolfsburg.
