Queens Park Rangers manager Mark Hughes has told goalkeeper Robert Green that he can leave the club when the transfer window re-opens in January.
The England shotstopper's first-team future was cast in doubt following the arrival of Julio Cesar from Inter Milan, with Hughes suggesting that a move may benefit both parties.
He told Sky Sports News: "If in the future any of my keepers came to me and said they felt their future lay elsewhere then we can have a conversation about that and make a decision that benefited everyone.
"But at the moment it's early days and the challenge is there for all my keepers.
"It's a difficult situation for Rob but the opportunity to bring in Julio Cesar came very quickly and it's one that we felt as a club we couldn't ignore."
Cesar is expected to make his QPR debut when they take on Manchester City away in this evening's Premier League clash.
