QPR Official Site - EXCLUSIVE: ADEL POISED TO RETURN
- Queens Park Rangers Football Club is delighted to announce it has reached agreement with Tottenham Hotspur Football Club for the season long loan signing of Adel Taarabt.
- Rangers have beaten off eleventh hour attempts from a number of other Championship Clubs to secure the attacking midfielder's services for the 2009/10 campaign.
- The 20 year-old, who made a stunning impact during a brief loan spell at Loftus Road at the end of last season, is due at Harlington in the coming days, with the formalities of the deal expected to be concluded by the weekend.
- Speaking exclusively to www.qpr.co.uk, R's gaffer Jim Magilton says he is relishing the Moroccan international's pending return.
- "I've seen Adel plenty of times and I know he's a player of undoubted ability," he said.
- "He's a match winner on his day and will bring added competition to the squad.
- "The fact we have been able to agree a deal to bring in someone of Adel's quality shows the sort of direction this Club is heading in.
- "If you can encourage a squad player from the Premier League to take the drop down to the Championship, then it shows what your intentions are."
- Magilton added: "He will benefit from playing regularly and, given a run in the side, I am sure he will give us another dimension.
- "Make no mistake, we are all very ambitious here - none more so than the players - and Adel's arrival will bring vital competition for places which is needed for any squad that has ambitions to challenge." QPR
