QPR want Spurs right-back
Relegated side Queens Park Rangers, now managed by former Tottenham youth coach Chis Ramsey, have contacted Tottenham about the availability of 22-year-old (23 in October) full-back Ryan Fredericks.
With Kyle Walker, Kieran Trippier and possibly DeAndre Yedlin ahead of him at Tottenham his chances of progressing into the first team are severely limited. It is the role of the academy to produce professional footballers, whether that be for Tottenham or not. Sales of players in Fredericks position, unless a full salary Premier League loan can be arranged to increase his value, help to fund youth development. In an ideal world, it should be self-funding.
Chris Ramsey was a part of that and knows the Tottenham youngsters well. He has already snapped up a former protege of his, 22-year-old Australian international Massimo Luongo from Swindon Town.
Last season Fredericks helped Middlesbrough reach the Championship play-off final and QPR were hoping to take him on another loan spell, however, it is believed Tottenham want a straight sale and are asking £3 million (US$4.69m - AUS$6.19m - €4.23m). Fredericks has one year of his Tottenham contract to run so the price may be a little high for QPR.
