Redknapp denies QPR approaches for Salah and  the Rs boss is keen to bolster his squad with loans in January but does not believe that the out-of-favour Blues winger would be available and has not revisited the Ajax man.

QPR manager Harry Redknapp denies
making approaches to take Mohamed
Salah on loan.

Redknapp has already entered the market during the January transfer window to bring West Ham forward Mauro Zarate to Loftus Road on a temporary basis.

The former Tottenham boss has made no secret of his desire to further bolster his squad and reports suggested that he was looking to add Chelsea winger Salah who almost moved to QPR in the close-season – to his ranks, but the 67-year-old says otherwise.

I will like to take [Salah] on loan but he’s not available for loan, Redknapp told the press. “I don’t think Chelsea would loan him, I’ve never asked about him, I wouldn’t think we’d get him on loan.

There is no approach at the moment, no.
Redknapp also concedes that his tactic of seeking loan deals throughout January is a gamble.

It’s a difficult one, spending big money in January,” he added. “We bought players in in the summer, [now] we’re looking for loans. It’s difficult. You’re taking a gamble.
