Mahon could stay at QPR - Warnock
Queens Park Rangers are set to offer out-of-contract midfielder Gavin Mahon the chance to return to the club and prove his fitness in the summer.
The 33-year-old has made just nine first-team appearances this season due to a long standing knee injury.
But manager Neil Warnock told BBC London 94.9: "He'll probably come back and do a pre-season with us and try and show me what he can do.
"I've always liked Gavin, we've just got to wait and see who's available."
Mahon joined QPR from Watford in 2008 initially on loan before agreeing a permanent deal for an undisclosed fee.
He began his career at Wolves without making a first-team appearance, before moves to Hereford, Brentford and then Vicarage Road.
"It's difficult at the moment with players, I don't really want to go abroad. I want to try and see if I can get English players in"
Neil Warnock
The former Hornets skipper is unlikely to feature again this season, with his last appearance coming in the win at Sheffield Wednesday on 7 November last year.
Having now secured their Championship status, manager Neil Warnock has already started planning for next season and is keen to bolster his attacking options.
"I've been looking for the last few weeks at what I want to bring in, finances will dictate that really," he said.
"I want to get my forwards sorted out first, I want two or three forward players and then we'll see what money I've got left.
"It's difficult at the moment with players, I don't really want to go abroad. I want to try and see if I can get English players in."
Warnock has also told fans not to expect a deluge of loan signings, having seen 12 players move to Loftus Road this season on temporary deals under four different managers - Jim Magilton, Paul Hart, Mick Harford and himself.
"It's very, very rare that I have more than one loan player at a club at one time," he added.
"I'm hoping we'll have a squad where if somebody gets injured we'll have replacements all over the show, that's what I'm looking to build."
