Liverpool Echo journalist James Pearce claims Liverpool’s deal for QPR’s Loic Remy has been delayed.

The QPR man had been expected to complete a £8.5million switch to Anfield on Thursday but, speaking to Extra Time, the Reds writer believes we may have to wait longer for the Premier League club to announce the Frenchman’s arrival.

“I’m led to believe there might be a slight delay on Loic Remy’s move to Liverpool,” he told talkSPORT. “It won’t take place on Thursday. There are no issues with the deal though, it will get done.”
