QPR are keen to offload Sandro after being relegated to the Championship. The Brazilian international has two years left on a £50,000-per-week contract.

The report goes onto state that ‘Turkish champions Galatasaray have shown the strongest interest’.

However Galatasaray are unlikely to be willing to pay a transfer fee over €4 million and may opt to loan the player with an option to buy instead.

Sandro joined QPR from Tottenham for €10 million last summer. The 26-year-old scored one goal in 18 appearances for QPR this season.
