QPR will join Blackburn Rovers and West Bromwich Albion in a move for Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha in January.
QPR boss Neil Warnock is ready to offer £3.5m for the ex-England Under-21s star - out of favour at City, says the Daily Star Sunday.
Onuoha, 25, has started only three Premier League games since Roberto Mancini took charge in December 2009.
He gained extra top-flight experience on loan last season at Sunderland but has been stuck on the fringes since returning.
