Man City winger SWP eager to get started with QPR

Shaun Wright-Phillips is delighted with his move to QPR.

Wright-Phillips has penned a three-year deal at Loftus Road, after QPR agreed an undisclosed fee with Manchester City for the midfielder's services.

"I'm delighted - I can't wait to kick-start my QPR career," Wright-Phillips told qpr.co.uk.

"Once I spoke to the Manager and saw the direction that the Club was going in, I wanted to be a part of that.

"I'm here now. Get behind me as best as you can, just like the City fans did, and I'll give you a hundred and ten per-cent every time I go on to the pitch.

"It's exciting times for QPR. With the new signings and the squad that we've got, the Club is heading in the right direction."

QPR boss Neil Warnock believes Wright-Phillips' arrival will add some real quality to the R's attacking options, adding: "I'm just really excited that we've been able to attract a player like Shaun to the Club.

"Right from day one, him and Joey Barton were at the top of our list and we've managed to get both of them, so I couldn't be more pleased.

"He's got a great attitude, a great character and he just wants to improve and impress as a footballer.

"Shaun's so positive and that's what we're looking for from all players that join QPR."
