Reports: QPR fall short with striker bid, Zamora faces pay cut

Ajax reportedly want more money from QPR for Icelandic striker Kolbeinn Sigthorsson.

West London Sport revealed this week that Rangers were in talks with the Dutch club and subsequently that they offered £5m for Sigthorsson.

But Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf  has reported that Ajax are unimpressed and that the two clubs are a long way from a deal.

Meanwhile, the Sunday People say Bobby Zamora has been told he must take a £50,000-per-week pay cut to stay at QPR.

It is claimed that Zamora, whose late goal in the play-off final took Rangers back to the Premier League, has been offered a £15,000-per-week deal.

The People also say Andy Johnson, recently released by QPR, has been offered £300,000 to play in the Indian Premier Soccer League for three months.

Johnson is said to be choosing between a move to India or Sheffield Wednesday.

Finally, it is suggested in the Mail on Sunday that R’s boss Harry Redknapp will sign Rio Ferdinand but failed with an attempt to take Frank Lampard to Loftus Road.
