QPR boss Warnock seeks deal for Liverpool midfielder Cole

QPR are stepping up their pursuit of Liverpool midfielder Joe Cole.

The Daily Mail says R's boss Neil Warnock meets with the club's hierarchy today to discuss plans for the summer.

Liverpool forward Cole has endured a nightmare first season at Anfield after his free transfer from Chelsea last summer.

The 29-year-old is likely to be allowed to leave this summer and Warnock is ready to explore the option of bringing him back to London on loan.

Speculation over Adel Taarabt's future continues to linger and Cole is seen as a potential like-for-like replacement for the Morocco forward - though any deal would depend on Liverpool taking on a portion of his £90,000-per-week wages.
