Transfer news: West Brom close to sealing £1.5m deal with QPR for Darnell Furlong

Slaven Bilic is closing on a £1.5million deal for QPR right back Darnell Furlong.

The West Bromwich Albion manager wants the athletic 23-year old to add extra pace and dynamism to his defence and hopes to get the transfer concluded over the next 24 hours.

Furlong is the son of former QPR striker Paul Furlong but is fast forging his own reputation after initially making a breakthrough under Chris Ramsey at Loftus Road when Rangers were in the Premier League.
