Football League World are suggesting we made an unsuccesful bid of £750k for Blackpool midfielder Bright Osay-Samuel who is a pace midfielder.

Not sure these days whether there is much difference between an attacking midfielder and a winger, but the72.co.uk have him down as a winger:

QPR have had an offer worth £750K for Blackpool’s Bright Osayi-Samuel rejected according to a report from journalist Alan Nixon.
It’s been reported for a while that the R’s have been interested in signing Osayi-Samuel which made a lot of sense considering the great form he was in last season. The 19-year-old winger, who came through the club’s academy and broke into the first team in 2015, scored five goals in 42 appearances for the Tangerines last season and was a key reason why the club finally got something to cheer after years of misery.

Either way, we do not have him - at least not yet.....

Proudly supporting QPR

At the end of last season I mentioned on QPR.net that I watched Plymouth play Barnet and that Barnet's John Akinde was outstanding and would be a good buy for the R's

In less than three years, the 27-year-old has scored 80 goals in 134 league appearances for Barnet, which is a phenomenal record in a side associated with mid-table mediocrity.

He totally bullied Argyle's player of the year Sonny Bradley as well as Argyles other centre back Nauris Bulvitis, all on his own.

He has the frame, the pace, the composure, the strength, the touch and the heading ability to be a brute in the Championship and it's good to see that we are now looking at him.

That is a quite incredible record at any level! Is there any reason nobody else has taken a chance on him before now?

I suspect that it's to do with his early career where he had 3 years at Bristol City and played around 21 games scoring just once. They might be thinking that he couldn't do it in the Championship previously and he might only be able to score in the lower leagues where he can bully the defenders. I think he has improved since those early days and if he was playing against the likes of Onhuoa and Lynch he would scare the **** out of them. I really believe he would do well for us. Just one issue, he got injured in a pre season game and hasn't played in Barnet's first few fixtures. If the injury is serious then any interest will be short lived anyway.

Interesting,he sounds like a bit of a beast and worth a gamble. I would prefer us to take a chance on somebody like that rather than loan a kid from a premier league youth team.

Let's not forget some players develop later and have to find what works for them. Akinde sounds like he fits that bill.

I can maybe understand clubs in our league looking but is he good enough for the Premier League with Swansea.

Paul Smyth linked on Sky, winger from Linfield

He is a pacey and tricky winger who several Championship clubs have been looking at. Ipswich had him on trial and Sunderland were also interested. It sounds like we made an initial approch that was rebuffed but have now gone back in following Linfields game against Ards on Tuesday where he was also being watched by scouts from Reading. Based on the write ups he has been getting over the water he sounds a young player full of potential.

Seems a lot of money for us these days, especially as it is on an unknown player.

Wonder if that is linked to Sylla leaving. We'd have 5 strikers if Ghoddos joined too but Sylla remained

Winger from Exeter. Seems we are definitely after more wide men
