QPR coach Marc Bircham has hinted they've already found a solution to Joey Barton's 12 match ban.

Bircham reckons Barton could be loaned out next season to a foreign club.

Bircham said: "When they first come back, the gaffer will sit down with Joey and probably the owners.

"After the internal investigation, they will sit down and see where they are going.

"You never know, you can get loaned out abroad to get games under your belt. That is maybe an option the club might look to."
