Queens Park Rangers caretaker-manager John Eustace has suggested to Football.London that he does not know if Luke Freeman will be at the club next season, amid speculation that Leeds United and Middlesbrough want the former Arsenal prospect.

According to talkSPORT, Leeds are interested in singing Freeman from Championship rivals QPR in the summer transfer window.

LondonFootballNews has claimed of interest in the 27-year-old midfielder from Middlesbrough, who will play in the Championship next season after missing out on the playoffs.

QPR caretaker-manager Eustace has suggested that he does not know if Freeman will be at Loftus Road beyond the summer transfer window.

Eustace told Football.London when asked if Freeman will be at QPR next season: “I don’t know. Luke’s a top player at this level so it’s only a good thing that there’s clubs watching him.

“It’s good for the club but hopefully he’ll be at the club next season because we need all of our top players.”

QPR exit likely?

Freeman is a very good player who has proved himself in the Championship, and with QPR unlikely to challenge for the playoffs for the next year at least, it is hard to see the London club being able to keep hold of the midfielder beyond the summer transfer window.

According to WhoScored, the 27-year-old midfielder scored seven goals and provided six assists in 43 Championship appearances for QPR this season.
