QPR boss Harry Redknapp has opened talks with six players – Mohamed Diame, Robbie Keane, Tim Cahill, Nicolas Anelka, Yann M’Vila and Loic Remy – over moves to the club.

Redknapp is desperate to add to his struggling Rangers squad this month, with the club currently odds-on favourites to be relegated from the Premier League in May.

It’s a realistic threat that has forced Redknapp’s hand and the manager is said to be keen on bringing in as many new players as possible to help the fight.

The 65-year-old confirmed his interest in West Ham star Diame, Shanghai outcast Anelka and MLS-based duo Keane and Cahill over the weekend, and reports now suggest talks are ongoing with all of those players over a move.

Keane and Cahill are likely to be six-week loans maximum, but Redknapp is reportedly still willing to bring them for a short-term impact.



Elsewhere, deals for Diame and Anelka are at an early stage but Redknapp confirmed he is pursuing them on Friday even though they would be difficult.

‘Diame’s a good player. You would love to have him here but he belongs to West Ham. The whole of football knows about his £3.5million buyout clause though,’ teased Redknapp.

‘Anelka is another one. He is a top player so we would be interested but whether we could afford to get anywhere near him I’m not sure at the moment.’

QPR have also cast an eye a bit further afield, with French newspaper L’Equipe suggesting that talks are underway with Marseille and Rennes for their international stars Remy and M’Vila.

Remy, who is also wanted by Newcastle, is available for £10million while M’Vila’s agent has offered him around clubs in Europe in recent weeks. He would cost upwards of £10m, though.

Redknapp is also expected to open negotiations with Tottenham over a loan deal for Jake Livermore in the next few days, having confessed recently that he’s already looking into a deal there.
