QPR boss Harry Redknapp is hopeful of thrashing out a deal for Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Scott Parker .

The 32-year-old has been linked with a move to Loftus Road all summer after falling out of favour at White Hart Lane.

Rangers face competition from Crystal Palace and Fulham, but Redknapp remains hopeful of getting a deal over the line.

He told the Daily Telegraph : "We're hopeful of getting Scotty signed soon. He's a great lad and will be a really good signing for us.

"He's a player that can do a job for us in the Championship and it's important to have someone like him around the dressing room."
