Harry looking for a slice of good Loic
Posted Monday, January 07, 2013 by The Sun
QPR boss Harry Redknapp flew to Marseille yesterday to start talks over an £8million move for striker Loic Remy.
Redknapp moved quickly following interest from Newcastle and Tottenham.
The Loftus Road boss sat next to Marseille president Vincent Labrune at the club’s French Cup clash with Guingamp.
Andre-Pierre Gignac — once a Fulham target — got both goals in Marseille’s 2-1 win but Remy is Redknapp’s first choice.
Remy, 26, has been linked with a move to England before. But Marseille are now ready to let him go — if the price is right.
The French club’s sporting director Jose Anigo said: “English clubs are looking at our players.
“If a big club comes in for Remy and he is interested, then we will see.
“His injuries hampered him and saw him miss the Euros. But I think he is back. I can see in training there is a renewed confidence.”
Redknapp is also keen on Rennes midfielder Yann M’Vila, 22. But Rangers will need to up their opening bid of £6.5m for the France international.
