Queens Park Rangers boss targets reunion with two Super Eagles-eligible players

Queens Park Rangers are keen on signing two Super Eagles-eligible players in the form of Leon Balogun and Aston Villa starlet Tim Iroegbunam.

 

West London Sport has confirmed that the London club are considering signing experienced Nigeria national teamer Balogun.

 

Balogun is currently unemployed following his release by Scottish Premiership giants Rangers in the off season.

 

It would be a reunion of sorts if the deal were to happen as Balogun and current Queens Park Rangers boss Michael Beale worked together at Rangers.

 

The centre-back has played in the EFL Championship before, making eleven appearances in the division during a loan spell with Wigan Athletic in the second half of the 2019-2020 season.

 

2022 European U19 champion Iroegbunam is another player of interest to Queens Park Rangers.

 

Beale has also worked with the Anglo-Nigerian in the past as he was Steven Gerrard's assistant at Aston Villa before taking the QPR job prior to the start of the 2022-2023 campaign.

 

Iroegbunam signed a new deal with Aston Villa last March, keeping him at the club until 2027.
