Potters Hitman Closes On Move To Moneybags Londoners

Last updated : 24 August 2010 By Dan Buxton

£5.5m hitman David Kitson looks set to join Queens Park Rangers on a three year deal, with the Potters receiving £2m for the former Reading man.

Kitson, 30, is massively out of favour at the Britannia Stadium, and is currently training with the youth team, after a major fall out with manager Tony Pulis after he reacted angrily after being subbed during the Potters 7-0 mauling by Chelsea in April.

It took the ex-Cambridge hitman 14 months to open his Potters account, but he managed to bag five goals last season, although it doesn't seem he'll get the chance to add to that before he departs from the Potters.
