Anton Ferdinand and Luke Young have been left out of QPR’s squad for their pre-season trip to Austria along with Adel Taarabt and Hogan Ephraim.
Ferdinand, sent on loan to Turkish club Burkaspor last season, is not in Rangers boss Harry Redknapp’s plans, while Young’s future has long been in doubt because of a hip condition.
Taarabt, who was sent home from the recent trip to Devon, is keen to leave the club before the new season starts, while Ephraim has been nursing an injury.
Jose Bosingwa, Joey Barton and Samba Diakite, whose Rangers careers are effectively finished, were also left out, as was keeper Julio Cesar – although QPR are still yet to receive a concrete offer for the Brazilian.
Ferdinand, Young and Bosingwa were instead named in the squad for an Under-21 match at Stevenage on Tuesday.
Striker Loic Remy, who has not featured during the pre- season campaign so far, did travel with the first-team squad to Austria, as did Esteban Granero despite the Spanish midfielder being likely to move before the start of the season.
Rangers are keen to sell Stephane Mbia, but he too made the trip.
Youngsters Michael Harriman, Max Ehmer, Frankie Sutherland and Mo Shariff are also with the senior squad.
