QPR agree Carvalho deal Portuguese defender on his way back to London on season-long loan

Sky Sports sources understand that Queens Park Rangers have agreed a deal in principle to sign Real Madrid defender Ricardo Carvalho on a season-long loan.

The 34-year-old has fallen out of favour at Primera Liga champions Real and will be allowed to move on in search of regular football.
Carvalho was omitted from the Real squad which toured the United States this summer, sparking speculation that he could be on his way out of the club.
A return to England, where he has previously taken in a successful spell with Chelsea, was quickly mooted.
