Sicknote Kieron Dyer is set to sign a one-year deal with newly-promoted Queens Park Rangers.
The midfielder, who managed just 15 Premier League starts in his four years at the club has apparently impressed Rs manager Neil Warnock to earn the short-term deal."As far as I’m concerned it’s a gamble worth taking," Warnock told the Standard. "He really impressed me in training and it looks like he has been working hard on his fitness throughout the summer.
“He has a lot of experience and is desperate to play in the Premier League again. I like the hunger he’s got and he wants to prove a point."
Meanwhile another former Hammer on the move - albeit in a rather different sense - is Thomas Hitzlsperger, who yesterday escaped a driving ban as - in his words - he needs a car in order to find work.
The unemployed German international - who was nicked at the beginning of April doing in excess of 100mph in a 70mph zone - was fined £750 and had six points added to his driving license.
