QPR set to sign 21-goal Hull City-linked international striker
Queens Park Rangers are set to complete a swoop for FC Lugano’s Slovenian international forward Zan Celar.
That is according to a fresh report from Football Insider on Wednesday afternoon, with the publication stating that the 25-year-old and the West London outfit have agreed a deal to complete his switch from the Swiss Super League side.
Marti Cifuentes is looking to build on a strong end to the previous campaign which saw the R’s eventually become successful in their escape from relegation to League One, as the Spaniard looks to make his side a competitive force in the Championship once again despite well-documented financial constraints.
A rebuilding job will be needed to do so, as attacking output was one area which Rangers fell well below-par in overall last term, scoring just 47 times across their 46 league games.
However, the addition of Celar, fresh off a stint with his country at UEFA Euro 2024, could go a long way to solving those goalscoring problems.
As per the aforementioned report from Football Insider, it is believed that the Lugano man has agreed terms with the Hoops ahead of the upcoming campaign.
The report goes on to state that Celar is expected to complete his signing imminently as a medical has already been booked before the move is officially ratified, as he looks set to join Paul Nardi, Hevertton and Liam Morrison as the fourth acquisition so far in Cifuentes’ first full pre-season in charge at Loftus Road.
