Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has conceded that there is only a slim chance that Junior Hoilett will sign a new deal at QPR.

The 26-year-old's contract expired at Loftus Road last summer and the Canadian is yet to sign for another club, nor has he committed his future to Rangers.

The former Blackburn man has a decision to make but faces a race against time as, if QPR sign a suitable replacement, the contract is taken off the table.

Hasselbaink explained: “The deadline is not there yet. If we can do business with somebody else and we know the right person comes in we will do it.

“It's not that we are waiting on Junior Hoilett. Junior knows that he can knock on my door if he wants to come back, he can come back.

“We know it's very slim but, in the meantime, we're trying to do business with other players but it has to be the right player for us that is going to fit in this new structure in this new way and take us forward. It's not easy to find the right individual.”
