Mark Hughes arrives at Loftus Road

Mark Hughes has arrived at Loftus Road for talks with Queens Park Rangers over their vacant managerial position, according to Sky Sports News.

The former Manchester City, Fulham and Blackburn Rovers boss is currently the odds-on favourite to take over from Neil Warnock, who was sacked yesterday evening following a poor run of form.

QPR's chief executive Philip Beard recently revealed that the club were hoping to make a swift appointment.

It now appears that 48-year-old Hughes is their number one target, although Gianfranco Zola and Rafael Benitez have also been linked with the post.
