Boro told to up offer for QPR star
QPR have told Middlesbrough to come back with £2million if they want to snatch winger Wayne Routledge from Loftus Road.
The Teesiders have offered £500,000 for the former Spurs and Aston Villa player – an offer that was laughed off even before the end of the cheeky enquiry.
But Rangers are in no hurry to sell one of their few successes of a mixed season, despite chairman Flavio Briatore's brake on any new cash transfers coming in.
An insider said: "Why should the club want to sell Wayne? But Middlesbrough are an attractive proposition – and in the end money talks.
"But any players coming in will be loans or free transfers only."
