Jack Hobbs a target for Leeds United, Queens Park Rangers?

Nottingham Forest defender Jack Hobbs is a transfer target for both Leeds United and Queens Park Rangers, according to a report.

The 27-year-old joined the Reds from Hull City in January 2014 after a successful loan spell at the City Ground.

Hobbs was restricted to just 19 appearances throughout last season due to injury problems, but he has been given the nod in three of Forest's five games so far this term.

According to the Nottingham Post, the former Liverpool player is now wanted by Championship rivals Leeds and QPR, who are both said to be in the market for a new centre-back.

The Hoops in particular are on the lookout, it is claimed, having missed out on Fulham-bound Tim Ream earlier this month.
