Mauricio Isla to join QPR

Queens Park Rangers are to sign defender Mauricio Isla next week after the club agreed a loan deal with Isla's club Juventus for the 2014-15 campaign. 

The talented Chilean defender will be allowed to leave Juve on loan as the club cannot guarantee Isla regular first team football since the arrival of Patrice Evra from Man Utd.

Isla, who has had spells playing for Udinese prior to Juventus, is also available for a 7.5 million euro fee in 2015 should QPR wish to make a deal permanent for the player.

Apparently, Isla has been persuaded to try his luck in London by former team mate Alexis Sanchez, who joined Arsenal last month.
