Nardiello joined QPR in 2007

Daniel Nardiello expects to leave QPR before the start of the season.

The Wales striker, 25, has been lined up for a move to Blackpool with Latvian central defender Kaspars Gorkss hoping to move in the opposite direction.

"There's things going on - negotiations and things like that," said Nardiello.

"I can't really say I'm going to be here in the near future. I think I'll be getting off. I've just got to sort a few things out."

Blackpool accused QPR of making an illegal approach to Gorkss after the west London club moved to sign him at the end of last season.

The row has prevented Gorkss featuring for the R's during their pre-season matches.

Nardiello, who left Barnsley to join QPR on a Bosman free transfer a year ago, struggled to make an impact at Loftus Road and is keen to move on.

"I want to be playing games and need to be somewhere I can do that," he added.
