QPR sign goalkeeper as Rob Green’s West Ham return draws closer

Queens Park Rangers look set to allow goalkeeper Robert Green to sign for West Ham United, as Huddersfield Town goalkeeper Alex Smithies is having a medical at the West London club. The former England international spent over six years at Upton Park, between 2006 and 2012.

According to HITC Sport, Chris Ramsey’s side are set to announce the signing of 25-year-old Smithies, which would pave the way for Green to make the move to Upton Park.

Huddersfield and QPR are said to have agreed a fee of around £1.5million for the goalkeeper, who has not featured for the Terriers in their last two matches.

Smithies has made over 270 appearances for the Championship side, but will now look to help QPR bounce back into the Premier League, at his imminent new home of Loftus Road.

Recent signing Darren Randolph from Birmingham City has not been too convincing in between the sticks during pre-season, and with Adrian currently suspended for three games, manager Slaven Bilic will look to strengthen this department.
