QPR Accept WBA's Bid for Danny Shittu (Now subject to Personal Terms/Medicall)

-
So QPR accept WBA's offer. QPR Shout £3million ...WBA proclaim £1.5...Both agree there are possible future payments. Have to see what the criteria are. The last two "major" players I recall QPR selling within days of the start of a new season: Dave Thomas back in 1977/78 and Paul Goddard, back in 1980/81. Now it depends on a medical and personal terms.

The sale is not exactly a complete surprise although Paladini has been quoted as saying a number of things. July 27 -skysports reported "...Queens Park Rangers chairman Gianni Paladini has hinted that West Bromwich Albion are close to meeting his side's asking price for Danny Shittu.... "If we have to wait for the money in instalments, then that's fine, but I always said the fee would be £3 million.
