Chris Ramsey has admitted that injuries to left-backs Yun Suk-Young and Armand Traore are a concern for QPR ahead of the new season.
Neither player has featured during pre-season, leaving head coach Ramsey with a potential problem as the Championship campaign approaches.
Traore’s fitness woes continue, while South Korea international Yun has been nursing a knee problem.
“When you’re injured in pre-season you’re going to miss out in terms of physical preparation for the new season.”

Ramsey is also unable to call upon left-back Jack Robinson, who was signed from Liverpool last summer and is recovering from a long-term knee injury suffered while on loan at Huddersfield.
“I do think there’s a concern. Yun’s got an injury we didn’t expect and Armand’s got an injury that has been ongoing,” Ramsey told West London Sport.
“It’s a concern because when you’re injured in pre-season you’re going to miss out in terms of physical preparation for the new season.”
Traore has been out of favour for much of his four years at QPR but has another 12 months remaining on his contract, having been given a two-year deal following a decent run of form prior to the club’s promotion in 2014.
There have been reports linking the 25-year-old with a move, but Ramsey said: “We haven’t had any enquiries about him.
“He’s an experienced player we’d probably be looking to use if he’s fit and available to play.”
