Jay Bothroyd joins Queens Park Rangers on free transfer

Premier League newcomers Queens Park Rangers have signed England striker Jay Bothroyd on a free transfer.

"I think this club is heading in the right direction and has got a lot of ambition," said Bothroyd.

Wolves set to announce Johnson deal

Wolves are set to parade Birmingham central defender Roger Johnson as their third signing of the summer on Wednesday morning in a near-£7million deal.

Wolves are holding a press conference at their Compton training ground to announce the signing of the former Cardiff player - barring any last-minute hitches.

The clubs have agreed a fee while Johnson has agreed personal terms and passed a medical. All that remains is for Johnson to formally put pen to paper on a four-year contract ahead of facing the media.
