Newcastle United striker Nile Ranger is fielding offers from Premier League rivals.
The Journal says Ranger is available for £1 million.
Bolton Wanderers are understood to be looking at Ranger after losing Johan Elmander to Galatasaray and seeing Daniel Sturridge's six-month loan from Chelsea end.
Newly-promoted QPR are expected to hold talks with Jay Bothroyd but, with so much competition, the London club are not confident of reaching a deal. Ranger is one of their fall-back options.
