James Perch is on the verge of a switch to QPR from Wigan - provided the Latics accept Rs bid for the 29-year-old right back.
Rangers have been without a dyed-in-the-wool full timer since Danny Simpson was sold to Leicester at the beginning of last season.
Loanee Mauricio Isla, Nedum Onuoha and Darnell Furlong have all ploughed a furrow down the right with mixed results, but the man who cost Newcastle a £1m in 2010 from Nottingham Forest is set to hold down the slot if all parties agree on wages and fee.
Perch, who can also play in defence or midfield and made 95 appearances for relegated Wigan after he joined from Newcastle in 2013.
