Rangers manager Michael Beale is set for a summer swoop on his former club to land a cut-price deal for winger Chris Willock.
And Record Sport understands the 25-year-old QPR attacker has made it clear he is eager to follow his former boss to Glasgow – four months after Beale Willock is out of contract at the end of the season and, although QPR have an option to trigger a new 12 month deal, Beale hopes to land the Londoner either for free or on a bargain basement fee.
The Rangers boss reportedly returned to his old club just last week on a scouting mission to watch a 1-1 draw with Norwich and although Willock was on the bench for that match, it’s understood he is one of Beale’s priority targets as he plans to oversee a major squad rebuild. Willock left the Emirates for Benfica in 2017 as a 19-year-old tipped for the top by legendary Gunners boss Arsene Wenger. But, despite signing a five year deal in Lisbon, he failed to make a top team breakthrough before returning to England two years later on loan deals with West Brom and Huddersfield.
