Sandro hopes to leave QPR when the transfer window opens in January.

Standard Sport understands the Brazil midielder is not happy at QPR and wants to join a Premier League club.

QPR are also keen to cash in on the 26‑year‑old, who has struggled to make an impact since joining from Tottenham for £10million in September last year.

Sandro, one of the club’s highest earners on £50,000-a-week, has made just 20 appearances in 14 months and played only 176 minutes in the Championship this term.

His lack of playing time is partly due to injuries suffered last season but also because of an embarrassing situation where it was discovered his work permit had not been renewed.

Sandro had to wait until October to get his first game this season and has been left out of the side for the last two matches.
