Gary O'Neil 'set to join' Norwich City

Norwich City are set to confirm the signing of former Queens Park Rangers midfielder Gary O'Neil following his release by the Loftus Road outfit.

Norwich City have stepped up their prepations for the new Championship season by moving for out-of-contract midfielder Gary O'Neil.

The 31-year-old is a free agent after being released by Queens Park Rangers following their promotion back to the Premier League.

"I got a phone call the other day from Norwich saying that they were interested," O'Neil told talkSPORT.

"I've been in talks with them for a couple of days. It's looking good, it's basically all done. We just need to sign things.

"My last two seasons in the Championship have earned promotion - the first with West Ham and QPR last year. So it's two from two, so I'm looking to make it a hat-trick this year if we get things sorted at Norwich."

Norwich City begin life back in the Championship with a trip to newly-promoted Wolverhampton Wanderers on August 10.
