Taye Taiwo finalises QPR move

Queens Park Rangers have completed the signing of Taye Taiwo from AC Milan on a loan deal until the end of the season.

The Nigerian full-back has become Mark Hughes's first addition as manager of Rangers.

"I have known of him for a long time and admired him from afar," Hughes told the club's official website. "To get him now is a fantastic coup and a real statement of intent that we can attract the quality of player that he is. I am looking forward to working with him.

"He has got great ability, a good reputation in the game and a great personality.

"He plays with a smile on his face and I think QPR fans are going to enjoy seeing him play for us."

Taiwo joined Milan in the summer on a free transfer from Marseille.
