Karl Henry is out of favour at Queens Park Rangers amid links with Manchester United’s Sean Goss.
QPR boss Ian Holloway has hinted that midfielder Karl Henry may be allowed to leave the club, West London Sport reports, while reports link Manchester United youngster Sean Goss with a move to Loftus Road.
The 34-year-old midfielder joined the club from Wolves in 2013 and had been a regular fixture in the QPR midfield although his role has diminished significantly since Ian Holloway returned to the club earlier in the season.
Henry has not played a single minute of football since the home defeat to Wolves on December 1st, with West London Sport claiming that he had been demoted to the reserves and made available for transfer after falling out with his manager.
And Holloway has now hinted he will not prevent Henry from moving on in the remainder of the transfer window while suggesting that he has a replacement on his mind.
“It’s up to Karl and his agent really [whether he wants to go]. I’ve got other midfielders and I might also be able to do something in that area,” the former Millwall boss told West London Sport.
These developments come just a day after the same publication claimed that QPR were looking to make a move for Manchester United’s 21-year-old academy star Goss – a player compared to Michael Carrick due to his expansive passing range.
Moreover, the former Exeter youth player could offer a great deal more to the QPR midfield than the ageing Henry, with his ability to dictate the tempo and fire in pinpoint set pieces far better suited to Holloway’s free flowing gameplan than the tenacious veteran.
