QPR to rival Toon for Norwegian
Queens Park Rangers and Newcastle United are in a battle to sign SK Brann left winger Petter Vaagan Moen according to reports in the player’s homeland. The 26-year-old is a Norwegian international and is in a similar mould to Blackburn Rovers midfielder Morten Gamst Pedersen.
Moen has gained a reputation in the Tippeliga for his crossing ability and dead ball capability which have seen the winger establish himself as one of the league’s top midfielders.
The player is out of contract in December 2010 and can sing in January on a free transfer for any club with reports suggesting Newcastle United and QPR are the two clubs in talks with the Norwegian international with the player almost certain to quit his homeland in the next transfer window.
