QPR plan to approach Tjaronn Chery about a new contract after the transfer window closes, West London Sport revealed today.

Chery is due to enter the final year of his contract next summer and Rangers are keen for him to commit his long-term future to the club.

Meanwhile, R’s youngster Darnell Furlong has joined Swindon on a season-long loan.

Many QPR fans on Twitter reacted with dismay to Furlong’s previous loan moves, but the reaction to this one has been largely positive.

So too was Rangers’ Under-23 side’s start to the season – they won 2-0 at Barnsley this afternoon.

Chelsea’s Bertrand Traore has also left on a season-long loan – his move to Ajax was confirmed today after the 20-year-old forward signed a new three-year contract at Stamford Bridge.

Blues boss Antonio Conte has insisted that Traore is part of the club’s long-term plans, and also believes Chelsea need to show patience in what the Italian has described as a “crazy” transfer market.

Fulham have made another purchase, completing the signing of Jozabed Sanchéz from Spanish club Rayo Vallecano.

And in badminton, Feltham’s Rajiv Ouseph got his Olympic Games campaign under way with a comfortable victory over Petr Koukal of the Czech Republic.
