Renault Formula One team boss Briatore, in partnership with F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone, hopes to buy the Championship club in a £14million deal.

"They (QPR) are a club with a fantastic history but as well they have had fantastic trouble in the last three years," he said.

"We want to make sure the fans understand that something is not just going to happen overnight because the situation we found was not fantastic and the club was already in deep trouble, but we have saved it.

"It's not only players that we need to address but also organisation and everything that has built up at QPR. We arrived at the last second and it was impossible to buy players because everything closed on the Friday.

"But now we will save up until January."
