QPR are thought to be interested in signing soon-to-be free agent Stefan Maierhofer from SV Mattersburg.

The 6ft 7in target-man is out of contract at the end of the season, and is thought to be keen on a return to the English Football League.

The Austrian international, who has picked up 18 caps for his country since 2008, is known to manager Ian Holloway as he was part of his Millwall squad who were relegated in the 2013-14 season.

A real physical presence, Maierhoffer could be the kind of attacking force that QPR will be searching for this summer as they strive to improve their record in front of goal in the new campaign.
