Folan agrees QPR move

Caleb Folan's agent says QPR have agreed a deal to sign the Hull striker on loan

Caleb Folan's agent says QPR have agreed a deal to sign the Hull striker on loan. The striker only recently returned from a spell at Middlesbrough but Tigers manager Phil Brown, who had a very public war of words with the Republic of Ireland international while he was on Teeside, is ready to let him go again.

The former Wigan player saw his time at Middlesbrough interrupted by injury and made just one appearance before Gareth Southgate was sacked and Gordon Strachan was installed as manager.

He is now back to full fitness and QPR boss Paul Hart is keen to lure him to Loftus Road as he looks to bolster his attacking options.

Folan's agent Hayden Evans has confirmed Hull are happy to loan out the 27-year-old and a deal has been agreed between both clubs.

"Hull have advised us they are happy to loan out Caleb," Evans told skysports.com. "The two clubs have agreed a loan deal and now just a few details need to be finalised.

"Caleb was unfortunate with injury at Middlesbrough, but he is now fully fit again."

Folan could be joined by Hull team-mate Daniel Cousin at Loftus Road with Hart also keen on signing the Gabon international on loan.
