Following the departures of goalkeepers Paul Nardi and Ben Hamer, QPR was left with only one senior player in that position. 29-year-old Irish international Max O'Leary is a potential target. It was reported that QPR was linked with the former Bristol City player during the winter transfer window before he joined West Brom on a short-term contract valid until the summer. Derby County and Blackburn Rovers also showed interest at the time. It has been suggested that O'Leary's deal with West Brom could be extended, but he may become available on a free transfer if the club seeks a new number one. He is considered a dependable option for a Championship club who could be signed to either start for QPR or provide competition. O'Leary, who has one cap for Ireland, has a current market value of €2.50m according to Transfermarkt.
