Aston Villa defender Luke Young is in talks over a possible move to Queens Park Rangers.

Young, 31, has started in his preferred right-back position in both of Villa's Premier League games so far this season, against Fulham and Blackburn. But he has been allowed to talk to Neil Warnock's side as they seek to rebuild under new owner Tony Fernandes.

The Hoops are also awaiting Newcastle midfielder Joey Barton's decision after he underwent a medical ahead of a proposed move, and have also been linked with Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips.
