QPR have completed the signing of AC Milan defender Taye Taiwo on loan until the end of the season.
The 26-year-old was also a reported target for Arsenal but opted to join boss Mark Hughes at Loftus Road.
The Nigeria international only signed for Milan from Marseille in the summer and has made only four starts for the club.
Taiwo is the first signing Hughes has made since replacing Neil Warnock as manager a fortnight ago.
"I'm happy with the opportunity to play at QPR," Taiwo told BBC Sport last week before the deal was finalised.
"I don't know if there are professional footballers who just love to pick up monthly salary by sitting on the bench. I'm not in that category."
"I need to settle down quickly and adapt to the rhythm that comes with playing in England," he added.
"I know only hard work, good performance, dedication, and passion will connect me with the fans but I'm prepared.
"I'm looking forward to what lies ahead and I'm prepared to give my all to the QPR cause."
