QPR are set to open contract talks with Nedum Onuoha in January, according to reports in the Daily Star.

The former-Manchester City defender, who is currently out of action with a torn hamstring injury, is one of a number of stars in the final year of their contracts, and the 31-year-old is thought to be at the front of the queue for an extension.

However, talk of the captain signing an agreement are far from a foregone conclusion, with Onuoha being one of the club's highest earners at present, meaning he's likely to have to take a substantial pay cut to fall in line with QPR's new wage structure.

Alongside Onuoha; James Perch, Steven Caulker, Jack Robinson and Reece Grego-Cox are also in the final year of their contracts.
