NEIL Warnock will give Kieron Dyer a chance to prove his fitness next summer in a bid to earn a new deal at Loftus Road.

The QPR star looks set to miss the rest of the season with a foot injury, and is out of contract in July.

However, boss Warnock refuses to write off the midfielder, who has been plagued by injuries in recent years.

“He's got to show in pre-season again that he warrants a contract,” said Warnock.

“He's not money-motivated, and it's not as if we've got to pay him a fortune. He wants to play football, which is a breath of fresh air.

“We won't write him off, but it must be soul destroying to go through what he has in the past couple of years.”
