Report: Queens Park Rangers keen to sign Stoke City's Peter Crouch

Queens Park Rangers manager Harry Redknapp is reportedly eager to bring Stoke City striker Peter Crouch to Loftus Road.

Redknapp has been a long-standing admirer of the 32-year-old, having played the forward in a number of the clubs he has managed in the past.

While Stoke boss Mark Hughes is believed to be keen on Crouch staying put, QPR will launch another attempt to sign him, according to The Mirror.

Crouch, who is said to be keen on returning to London, has played under Redknapp at Tottenham Hotspur, Southampton and Portsmouth.
