Queens Park Rangers are reportedly ready to land Fulham's Andy Johnson for £2.5m.

Rangers boss Neil Warnock wants the former Everton striker to help his side secure their place in the Premier League after an impressive start to the campaign that has seen them climb to 11th in the table, according to The People.

Johnson, 30, is understood to prefer the option of a move across the capital over leaving London altogether, amid reported interest from Steven Kean's struggling Blackburn side.

Johnson has scored three goals in nine league appearances for Fulham this season.
