QPR chairman Tony Fernandes cannot rule out Adel Taarabt leaving.

The midfielder spent the second-half of last season at AC Milan, where he is still admired.

Fernandes said: "I'd like to keep him because he is one of the best players I've ever seen. He has a great football brain and he knows it.

"But it depends on what he wants or does not want to do.

"From a professional point of view it would be nice if he stays with us."
