Town Amongst Trio Eyeing Slovenian Defender

Town, QPR and West Ham are all understood to have been alerted to the availability of Slovenian international defender Marko Å uler. The 28-year-old is currently with KAA Gent in Belgium but is looking to move on.

Å uler is unhappy at Gent because manager Trond Sollied plays him at left-back rather than the central defensive position he has occupied while winning 27 caps and scoring two goals for his country. Gent are believed to be willing to allow the 6ft 2in tall defender to leave if they receive the right offer.

Rated at around the â‚¬2 million mark, Å uler played youth football with hometown club NK Slovenj Gradec, then moved over the border to Austrian clubs SAK Klagenfurt and KÃ¤rnten.

In 2001 he was back in Slovenia with Dravograd, before departing for Gorica in 2004. After four seasons there, he joined Gent in 2008.
