West Bromwich Albion are moving to trump QPR for released Cardiff City striker Jay Bothroyd.
The Sunday Mirror says the 28-year-old, who won an England cap last winter, is chasing a move to the Premier League after letting his contract run out.
And Albion manager Roy Hodgson, who wants to find a big front man to partner last season's top scorer Peter Odemwingie, will give him the chance.
Everton and SPL champions Rangers are also monitoring Bothroyd, who has scored 41 goals in three years at Cardiff.
