Two seasons ago, Sandro was looking like one of the top pure defensive midfielders in the Premier League. One catastrophic knee injury and a spell under "I hate defensive midfielders" Tim Sherwood later and it looks like a man who used to be arguably Tottenham Hotspurs' most important player could be heading to Loftus Road and Queens Park Rangers.
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Sandro takes QPR medical
Spurs are apparently dead set on getting rid of Sandro -- the defensive midfielder is on the way to Queens Park Rangers for £10 million.

The latest rumor has the Brazilian taking a medical ahead of a £10 million deal. On the face of things this makes a whole lot of sense for QPR and not for Spurs, but it's clear that Sandro's not in new manager Mauricio Pochettino's plans -- he's been using a central midfield of Nabil Bentaleb and Etienne Capoue -- and Tottenham are probably better off making some money from the 25-year-old's sale than sticking him in the corner for sad toys and forgetting he exists.
QPR, of course, could be getting a very good player. If he bounces back completely from the injury, this could be an extremely important signing. Let’s see if it pans out.
