​DONE DEAL: QPR sign Archer after Middlesbrough release

Queens Park Rangers have secured the signing of Middlesbrough goalkeeper Jordan Archer.

The shot-stopper left Boro and was available on a free transfer.

QPR have now confirmed his arrival via their official website, stating that Archer has signed a two year contract.

Archer will serve as competition to no.1 Seny Dieng between the sticks next term.

QPR boss Mark Warburton said: "I am delighted to have Jordan on board.

"With Joe Lumley and Liam Kelly both leaving the club, we were short in that area so we needed to bring in a replacement who would be ready when called upon, but also could provide stiff competition for Seny – Jordan meets that criteria.

"He knows the league and he knows what's required of him."
