Jay Bothroyd to decide on QPR or Spurs transfer 'imminently' Former Cardiff striker Jay Bothroyd could be heading to Premier League new boys QPR, who are looking to see off competition from Spurs to get their man.

Jay Bothroyd is being chased by QPR and Spurs (PA) Jay Bothroyd is being chased by QPR and Spurs (PA) Everton and Celtic are also believed to be interested in the former Arsenal Academy graduate. His agent Sky Andrew confirmed that Bothroyd is likely to make a decision on his next club in the coming days. 'For someone like him that's out of contract he wants to get in for pre-season and get himself ready for the new season. He wants to play at the highest level,' he added. Bothroyd built up an impressive scoring record in the Championship with Cardiff, netting 41 times in 116 appearances and it looked like his goals would be enough to secure the Welsh side a promotion into the Premier League. However, Cardiff faded away towards the end of the season and missed out to Reading in the play-off semi-final.

He (or more likely the greedy little **** of an agent) reckons that if he was still under contract he would be worth at least £4m, so anyone who wants him can pay him that much as well. £65k/ week = close on £3.5m a year. 3 year deal worth over £10m. Imagine what Adel would do if he found out that someone was getting paid over twice as much as him! This is the problem with a team sport. Some players are more valuable than others, but in the end it is the team that wins, draws or loses. It causes problems when players who play week in and week out earn such different amounts.
This was in the Sun so I belive nothing. I think he'll be on around £40k a week though which isnt bad considering no transfer fee. I think Spurs will pinch him though as they will pay him more. I can see his quote over the weekend; " I was all set to go to QPR but when a club of Spurs size come in for you blah blah blah". Greedy git!!
