Leeds United and Middlesbrough face competition for Luke Freeman.
The former Bristol City star has two years left to run on his contract at QPR but looks set to leave Loftus Road this summer.
Leeds have been said to be keen on signing Freeman since last summer, with Middlesbrough also very interested in the player.
His stock has only risen over the past year as the 27-year-old was comfortably the R's best player in 2018/19.
Yet the Sun report that he could be on his way to the Premier League in the next couple of days thanks to interest from Sheffield United.
The Blades are said to be willing to pay £4m for Freeman, who is keen to play in the Premier League.
In January 2017, Freeman was coming to the end of his Robins contract and departed for QPR after some good form.
Robins boss Lee Johnson revealed that Freeman turned down a new contract offer, but, speaking 12 months later, the player claimed it was out of his hands.
"To be perfectly honest, it was out of my hands," said the former Arsenal youngster. "The club didn’t really offer me anything and it was coming to the end of my contract so I needed a club.
"I was waiting over eight months for a contract that was so-called going to be offered to me.
"When they did it was really nowhere near what anyone else was on.
"So it was out of my hands. I probably wouldn’t have left if they had offered me the contract they said they were going to offer me earlier.
""It was one of those where I had to leave because there wasn’t anything on the table for me.
"It was out of my hands – if I had had it my way I would probably have still been there but that’s football. These things happen. You have to move on and do what you can."
He still retains close links to a number of his old Robins teammates, having invited them to his wedding earlier this month.
