West Bromwich Albion have reportedly made a move for QPR midfielder Sandro Raniere.

According to Sky Sports, the Baggies are keen on the Brazilian and have approached the R's regarding a loan deal for the remainder of the season.

Sandro has struggled for regular game time since arriving at Loftus Road from Tottenham in the summer of 2014 and has been given permission to leave provided the West London club can get the right deal.

Albion boss Tony Pulis wants to strengthen his midfield and believes the hard-nosed approach of Sandro could give his side some steel going into the business end of the Premier League campaign.
