QPR agent in Faurlin transfer tangle revealed

THE SO-CALLED ‘unauthorised’ agent at the centre of the QPR Alejandro Faurlin furore is believed to be Italian Peppino Tirri.
But far from lacking credentials, the 54-year-old Italian is a registered FIFA agent whose offices are just off Piccadilly Circus and numbers the likes of Luis Figo among his clients.
Chronicle sport has learned Tirri’s name is at the bottom of the FA documents for the Argentine’s registration when he joined Rangers in 2009.
Yesterday, the club and chairman Gianni Paladini were charged with seven counts of breaching FA rules relating to transfer rules and regulations that include third party involvement and payments to an unauthorised agent.
If found guilty the Championship table-toppers could lose points and/or suffer a hefty fine.
But Rs are confident that not only is everything above aboard, their legal team will have the case thrown out before it reaches the hearing stage.
Nothing has been hidden or any document altered, as was the allegation made against West Ham in 2007 during the Carlos Tevez affair it’s understood – and Hoops are mystified that two years after they signed the 24-year-old midfielder, the sport’s domestic authority want to take action now.
"Barristers working for the club have looked at it from top to bottom – and there is no case to answer," said an insider.
