Everton and Stoke will rival Swansea for QPR winger Junior Hoilett.
The 22-year-old has been among several big-money signings to disappoint at Loftus Road this season and almost left in January as part of the controversial deal involving West Bromwich Albion’s Peter Odemwingie.
There was significant interest in him last summer when his contract at Blackburn expired but despite his poor form, Everton and Stoke believe they can revive his career.
Hoilett, who has made 26 appearances and scored two goals is on around £50,000 a week.
