The Queens Park Rangers midfielder Adel Taarabt was linked with a move away from Loftus Road during the summer, but nothing materialized and he has stayed put for now. But Italian side Lazio have made the Moroccan their number one target once the January transfer window opens.
Paris Saint Germain was heavily linked with Taarabt, 22, over the summer, as were Arsenal, Spurs and a host of other clubs. Their attention was drawn to Loftus Road after a string of fine performances last season saw Taarabt score 19 goals in the Championship, which helped QPR win the title.
Lazio are looking to strengthen their squad after a poor start to their league season in Italy which has seen them take just five points from their first four games, and they could only draw their opening Europa League game 2-2 against Romanian minnows FC Vaslui.
Taarabt has yet to score this season and has found life much harder in the Premier League, and with QPR now being under the ownership of Tony Fernandes and looking to buy in the likes of David Beckham Taarabt’s days could well be numbered.
