Norwich, QPR & Bristol City chase international full back

Norwich City, Queens Park Rangers and Bristol City have all expressed an interest in signing Villarreal left back Bojan Jokic in January(TEAMtalk). The Slovenian international is out of favour with the La Liga club, failing to make a single club appearance this season. He has played three times for his country this season, most recently in the 0-0 draw with England.

The fact that the 30-year-old defender has experience of the Championship does make him more of an attractive proposition to teams at this level. Last season, he played 21 times whilst on loan at Nottingham Forest, 19 of those coming as a starter. He is said to be open to the prospect of a return to the English second-tier in search of first-team football.

He has had his injury problems this season, with a broken toe causing him some discomfort, but still ultimately played with credit in the recent international against England. His contract runs out at the end of the season and is already planning for life away from The Yellow Submarine. He could leave permanently in January, or seal a loan move away until the end of the season until his contract expires.

It is perhaps QPR who are in need of the player more than their other two league rivals. With Jake Bidwell out long-term, they are short in this area. Norwich have both Martin Olsson and Robbie Brady who can fill in this role, whilst Bristol City have both Joe Bryan and Scott Golbourne.

Prior to his move to Spain in 2013, he spent over three seasons in Italy with Chievo. He is yet to score a goal in his entire career.
