QPR linked with Boro star Friend

QPR are interested in Middlesbrough defender George Friend, as are Crystal Palace and Reading, according to Sky Sports.

The 26-year-old’s contract is due to expire next year and his representatives are hoping to negotiate a new deal.

Meanwhile, Fulham, Palace, Swansea and West Brom are interested in QPR defender Nedum Onuoha, as are clubs in Turkey, Goal.com say.

It is claimed that Rangers boss Harry Redknapp wants to discuss a new contract for the 27-year-old but that Onuoha could look to move on amid ‘uncertainty’ over his role following the recent signings of Rio Ferdinand and Steven Caulker.

A source is quoted as saying: “Nedum is happy at QPR and figured prominently last season, but he won’t accept sitting on the bench this season, and he knows there is interest elsewhere.”

And the Evening Standard say Redknapp is considering a move for French striker Andy Delort.

Brentford are also apparently interested in the 22-year-old, who plays for Tours in the French second division and scored 24 league goals last season.
