Hide AdLeeds manager Neil Warnock has had his eye on Kenny all summer, and is expected to start negotiations soon.
He said earlier: “I’ve been with Paddy for a long time and you never say never. But I’d imagine it depends on who QPR buy or bring in first.”
It is unclear, however, whether Leeds can afford to finance the deal. Discussions about investment at Elland Road are understood to be ongoing.
Kenny, who is also being pursued by Ipswich, is likely to cost in the region of £500,000.
His arrival at Leeds would almost certainly lead to the departure of Leeds’s first choice keeper Andy Lonergan, who is thought a likely choice for Bolton Wanderers.
