Kalou distances himself from QPR switch

Lille striker Salomon Kalou says he is not interested in joining QPR next month and has vowed to turn his career in France around.

Kalou joined the French club from Chelsea in the summer but has endured a miserable time - he was singled out for criticism from manager Rudi Garcia recently and has scored just two league goals so far.

Harry Redknapp has been linked with a move for the Ivorian but he says he wants to fight for his place at Lille.

"I do not know if I will leave this winter," he told Sport Ivorie.

"At the moment I am here. I have a contract with the club and the coach supports me.

"I am happy to be here. When a club is in trouble, it is normal that the top players are criticised. But don't get me wrong, I know there are games where I am not at my level."
