QPR no.2 Jones says new players will be sorted soon

Queens Park Rangers assistant boss Mick Jones has revealed that the club will bring in some fresh faces prior to this weekend's clash with Coventry City.

Newcastle United winger Wayne Routledge is set to join on loan whilst West Bromwich Albion striker Ishmael Miller and Millwall defender Danny Shittu are both close to getting on board.

Jones says that the Championship-leading squad will be strengthened but said there is no real hurry.

"The manager is determined to strengthen his squad during this window," said Jones.

"We'll try to get three or four players in this window but we're not panicking, we can still get loans in March.

"Neil is working very hard, I've never seen him so determined and I'm hopeful something will happen."
