Scott Parker: Wanted by former manager Harry Redknapp

Harry Redknapp, who has also enquired about Jermain Defoe, sanctioned the unsuccessful offer for his former player earlier this week.

Rangers must now decide whether to go back with a second bid for the 32-year-old, but in the meantime Redknapp has identified another target in Liverpool's Oussama Assaidi.

The Morocco winger was signed from Heerenveen last summer in a £2.4m deal but did not start once in last season's Premier League.

QPR want him on loan, and talks with Liverpool over a deal are ongoing.
