QPR manager Harry Redknapp has worked with Crouch at three different clubs and wants to bring the forward back to Loftus Road, according to The Mirror.
New Stoke boss Mark Hughes will allow the 32-year-old to leave the Britannia Stadium, provided he can bring in a replacement.
Crouch has previously worked under Redknapp at Tottenham Hotspur, Southampton and twice at Portsmouth.
