ALI Faurlin has not been offered a new contract and could well be one of the ‘four’ chairman Tony Fernandes promises is about to exit QPR either permanently or on loan.

Although the Argentine was one of six first-teamers who turned out in a behind closed-doors friendly against Leyton Orient on Saturday, Chronicle sport has learned the man on loan to Palermo last season is surplus to requirements.

Faurlin (pic) is among a host of players in the last year of their current deals that include Armand Traore, Luke Young, Anton Ferdinand, Shaun Derry, Ji-Sung Park.

All but Traore played in the 1-1 draw against Orient with the Rs goal scored by Tom Hitchcock, but manager Harry Redknapp admitted the ‘nucleus’ of his first-team squad played in the 3-1 win at Southend on Friday night.

QPR team against Leyton Orient: Murphy, Harriman, Ehmer, Ferdinand, Young; Barton, Derry, Faurlin, Park; Ephraim, Hitchcock
