QPR Talk To Defender Matt Hill (23)
QPR have offered a revised bid for
Bristol Rovers defender Matt Hill. Rovers want the 100k that would activate a clause it Matt Hill's contract and they seem to only want it in 1 payment. I can't blame them. I gather the contract entitles Matt Hill to leave for 100k if a club from a higher league wants to sign him.
QPR originally offered 50k now and the rest in installments. Bristol Rovers unsurprisingly said no.
Preston are also chasing Matt Hill's signature apparently. Holloway will not be happy about that as he is reported to be a keen admirer of the pacey left footed young defender. (23)
Matt Hill is quite smal at 5'6 for a defender, but plays very well in the centre of defence. I believe Hill is more impressive at left back though and is definately more naturally suited to playing at full back due to his lack of height.
Matt Hill is an energetic, tough tackling defender with a bit of pace about him and is comfortable on the ball. Hill can pass it too, which helps when playing football I think.
