Redknapp expecting big things from QPR new boy Fer

QPR manager Harry Redknapp believes new signing Leroy Fer will bring plenty of quality to Loftus Road.

The Dutch international has left Norwich City to sign a three-year deal with the R's and Redknapp is of the belief that he will add plenty of depth to his squad.

"He will be an excellent signing - a Dutch international who played in the World Cup," said Redknapp.

"He is an outstanding midfield player and will bring a lot of qualities to the club. It is a massive boost and I'm delighted we've been able to get him to QPR.

"He's got a great physique, gets box to box - I think he'll be a good signing for us. We were a bit light (in midfield). You need cover everywhere."
