David McIntyre - Ealing Gazette - Deadline signing for Rs
QPR are set to sign Sheffield United's Mikele Leigertwood once a takeover of the club is rubber-stamped later today.
London-born Leigertwood, 24, will cost Rangers around £800,000.
The player can operate in either defence or midfield and was a very highly-rated youngster at Wimbledon before joining Crystal Palace last year.
He has played in the top flight with both Palace and Sheffield United.
Rangers are also hoping to sign striker Kevin Gallacher, 23, from Blackburn before the transfer window closes on Friday.
But a bid to sign West Ham's Hayden Mullins has been rebuffed and hopes of capturing Chelsea's Scott Sinclair appear to be receding. Ealing Gazette
