Leeds United’s Tyler Roberts is joining QPR and is now expected to undergo a medical with the Championship side today.
The Whites completed a big sale this week by allowing star midfielder Kalvin Phillips to join Manchester City.
Raphinha is expected to leave Leeds too in the coming weeks, with Leeds poised to rake in the cash for two players.
There could be more departures to come though with Leeds selling wing back Liam McCarron to Stoke City whilst Leif Davies could go too.
Neither of those players have been seen in first-team action of late but one senior player looks to be on the way out too.
Leeds United’s Tyler Roberts is joining QPR
The Daily Mail report that forward Tyler Roberts is heading for a medical with Queens Park Rangers later today.
It’s stated that Roberts will be joining QPR on loan but there will be an option of a £4.5million permanent move next summer.
The Mail reported over the weekend that five Championship clubs are interested in signing Roberts.
QPR were one of the teams mentioned with Birmingham City, Cardiff City, Huddersfield Town and Hull City also keen.
It now looks like QPR will win the race and give new boss Michael Beale a big new signing at Loftus Road.
Roberts started seven Premier League games last season and made a further 23 substitute appearances.
The 23-year-old only managed one goal and one assist and his time at Leeds has been frustrating in terms of his attacking output.
For a forward player, nine goals in 108 games for Leeds just isn’t good enough and Jesse Marsch is seemingly ready to let him go.
With the World Cup on the horizon, the Welsh international will want regular playing time to book his seat for the trip to Qatar.
Leeds can’t offer that but QPR can, with a deal now seemingly close for Roberts to leave Elland Road.
