Queens Park Rangers are interested in signing Guingamp youngster Axel Urie on a free transfer with his contract due to come to an end imminently, according to France Football.
Finances are usually tight at Loftus Road and this summer will be no different.
Even the biggest, the best and the playthings of oligarchs and crown princes will be forced to keep their purse strings tight during the coming months. The absence of club football across Europe (except Belarus of course) has hit everyone hard in the pocket.
So it makes sense that QPR would be in the market for bargain signings like Urie.
An attacking midfielder who has struggled to force his way into Guingamp’s first-team despite his obvious potential, France Football points out that Urie is set to become a free agent in the very near future.
Mark Warburton’s Rangers will have to fight off competition from a La Liga outfit for the 21-year-old’s signature, however, with Levante in the race too.
What QPR’s interest means for the future of a pair of fans’ favourites remains to be seen. Both Ebere Eze and Bright Osayi-Samuel are expected to leave for sizeable sums and Urie, if he arrives, would have big shoes to fill in West London.
