Queens Park Rangers 'agree £1.4m deal to sign Bolton's Tim Ream'

Queens Park Rangers have struck an agreement with Bolton at £1.4m to sign defender Tim Ream, according to Sky sources.

It is understood the USA international, 27, has already arrived in London to undergo a medical and finalise personal terms.

Rangers had a previous bid for Ream rejected by Wanderers earlier this summer, and manager Neil Lennon has both insisted he does not want to sell the centre-back and revealed they had also turned down an offer from Fulham.

But Sky sources understand a deal between Rangers and Bolton was reached late on Wednesday evening.

Ream joined Bolton in 2012 for £2.5 from New York Red Bulls in 2012, having trained with the club during the MLS side's winter break.

He has made over 100 appearances for the Championship club, without scoring, and he has played in 15 games for the USA.
