Out-of-favour Tottenham pair Steven Pienaar and Sebastien Bassong are both hoping to join Mark Hughes at QPR before the end of Tuesday night’s transfer deadline, according to The Guardian.

The duo will have to wait to see if potential bids from the London outfit match the asking price of Spurs chairman Daniel Levy who is apparently hoping to recoup at least the £8 million spent in particular on bringing in the French defender from Newcastle United.

Bassong was on the verge of signing for Rangers at the end of the last transfer window back in August, but a failed move for Bolton’s Gary Cahill saw that deal abandoned.

Pienaar has seen little action since arriving at White Hart Lane last January, managing just 14 minutes on the pitch for Spurs this season in the Premier League and making a brief cameo in Spurs’ win over Watford in the FA Cup last weekend.

Levy would be happy to see the South Africa international leave for a discounted price of just £3 million in order to bring down the club’s wage bill, with Pienaar a top earner at the north London side on £70,000 a week.
