DONE DEAL: QPR sign released Liverpool midfielder Elijah Dixon-Bonner

QPR have signed former Liverpool midfielder Elijah Dixon-Bonner.

The 21-year-old was a free agent after leaving the Premier League side in the summer.

"The energy in the squad is amazing. The way the guys have welcomed me has been incredible," Dixon-Bonner told the club website.

"I feel really comfortable and that will help me play my football. I already feel like I have been here for ages."

Dixon-Bonner was named in Liverpool's Champions League squad last season and featured in their Carabao Cup campaign.

He came through both Arsenal and Liverpool's youth academies and knows QPR boss Mick Beale and first-team coach Neil Banfield from those early days.

"When he [Beale] spoke about the plans he has for me at QPR and how I could contribute to the squad, I was really excited."

"I have so much respect for Neil and I can't wait to be working with him day in, day out."
