Queens Park Rangers are interested in signing former West Ham United youngster Sorba Thomas after his impressive spell in non-league football, according to the Daily Mail.
With the likes of Jamie Vardy, Andre Gray and most recently Macauley Bonne making the step up from National League to Championship look easy, QPR will hope Thomas can repeat the trick.
The 21-year-old represented West Ham at youth level but, instead of forcing his way into the first-team picture, Thomas was forced to give up on his claret-and-blue dreams and prove himself away from the bright lights of the Premier League.
According to The Mail, the England C international could be heading back up the ladder, with QPR rivalling Barnsley for his signature.
Charlton Athletic, the side that snapped up Bonne from Leyton Orient last summer, are interested too.
Thomas is plying his trade with Boreham Wood in the fifth tier, scoring five goals from a right-wing role last season.
He also played in a more defensive position at times, suggesting he will offer not only pace and skill but versatility on the flank.
Thomas should enjoy the attractive, forward-thinking style of play at Mark Warburton’s QPR, a club with a fine track record when it comes to blooding young talent such as new £20 million Crystal Palace signing Eberechi Eze.
