QPR Eye Victor Moses, Complete Onuoha Deal
Posted: Jan 26, 2012
QPR are ready to make a swoop for Wigan Athletic’s Victor Moses, according to reports.
After failing in his attempts to bring in Tottenham wingers Steven Pienaar and Niko Kranjcar, meanwhile, Hughes will also turn to 21-year-old Moses, according to The Times.
Moses joined Wigan from Crystal Palace in a deal that could be worth up to £2.5m in January 2010, and Latics chairman Dave Whelan is said to be reluctant to let the England under-21 international depart.
Meanwhile QPR have completed the signing of Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha on a four-and-a-half-year deal.
The 25-year-old had been little more than a fringe player at City and now links up with former manager Mark Hughes at Loftus Road.
Onuoha becomes the recently-appointed QPR manager’s second signing, following the addition of AC Milan’s Taye Taiwo, and moves for an undisclosed fee, which is understood to be in the region of £2.5million.
Hughes told the club’s official website www.qpr.co.uk: “Nedum is a player I know very well.
“He did very well for me at Manchester City and played a number of games, probably more than under any other manager.”
“This was the right time for me to join a club like QPR,” Onuoha added on the club’s official website.
“The manager obviously played a massive factor in my decision to come here. I’ve worked with him before and he always wants players around him who are open and honest.
“He wouldn’t have come here if he didn’t believe that there was a squad of players here that can achieve the goals he has.
“The ambition of the owners was really appealing. This is my club now and I’ll give everything to help us succeed.”
Onuoha could make his QPR debut in Saturday’s FA Cup fourth-round tie against west London rivals Chelsea, although Hughes has previously indicated he is willing to give the versatile defender time to settle in due to his recent lack of first-team football.
