Submitted by Andrew Slevison on Wed, 02/22/2012 - 15:00

Queens Park Rangers’ head of youth development Steve Gallen was delighted to have acquired the services of Australian youngster Peter Skapetis.

The 17-year old striker has signed an 18-month deal with the West London outfit, joining the Club's Centre of Excellence as a First Year Scholar, and Gallen is looking forward to watching the former South Melbourne ace closely.

"We are pleased to bring Petros in,” Gallen told QPR’s official website.

"He is a good lad. He's quick, bright, lively and he wants to score goals.

"He can also play on the flanks and get crosses into the box. He is a good addition to our youth department."
