QPR have had an opening bid for Charlton midfielder Jordan Cousins rejected, according to reports.

Cousins, 22, is likely to leave the Valley this summer following Charlton’s relegation to League One.

The academy graduate excelled towards the end of the season and won a number of man of the match awards.

QPR have been linked with Cousins for several months and HITC Sport say the Championship side have now tabled an offer.

It is claimed Charlton have rejected the bid but that QPR are set to make an improved proposal this week.

Cousins has made more than 100 appearances for the Addicks since signing his first professional deal with the club in 2012.
