Queens Park Rangers could pull off quite the coup by signing one of the most talented players in the Manchester United academy.
Queens Park Rangers want to reinforce their squad in January and have identified Manchester United youngster Sean Goss as the ideal addition, West London Sport reports.
Ian Holloway’s return as manager is finally having an impact on performances and results at Loftus Road with QPR on a three match winning streak in the Championship but, in a testament to their dismal start to the campaign, that still leaves them all the way down in 17th.
Consequently, they have been linked with a number of January additions with United midfielder Goss the latest to be linked with a move to the capital.
The deep-lying playmaker is yet to make his senior debut for the Red Devils and, at the age of 21, there’s a growing suspicion that the ship has already sailed despite his excellent performances for the club’s reserve team.
However, Goss’ excellent distribution and ability to control the game from the base of midfield is likely to make quite an impression in the second tier, a league still renowned for its fast pace and end to end attacking.
And the fact that the former Exeter City starlet is modelling his game on Michael Carrick, one of the most naturally gifted English midfielders of his generation, will certainly raise hopes that he will be a hit under Holloway.
“He is one of my favourite players and I do look up to him. I want to play like him as well, spreading passes,” Goss told United’s official website in 2015.
If he proves to be even a fraction as successful as his club-mate then QPR could have snapped up quite the bargain.
