Queens Park Rangers confirm Massimo Luongo signing

Massimo Luongo completes a switch from Swindon Town to Queens Park Rangers, where he will link up with his former coach Chris Ramsey.

Queens Park Rangers have completed the capture of Swindon Town midfielder Massimo Luongo on a three-year contract.

The Australia international, who was named in the PFA League One team of the year by his fellow peers, joins the R's for an undisclosed fee.

Luongo scored six goals and added a further eight assists to his personal tally for the campaign, although he was unable to help Swindon over the line as they fell short in last weekend's playoff final.

Speaking after the switch had been completed, QPR boss Chris Ramsey said: "Mas is a player I know a lot about having played a part in his development at Spurs.

"He brings quality on the ball; the ability to link up play all across the pitch; and his goals and assists record at club and international level speaks volumes for a creative midfielder.

"As with any young player, there are areas of his game that need improving, but knowing him as I do, I know he will embrace the learning curve of playing for us in the Championship. I'm confident he will flourish at Loftus Road."

Luongo was also named Player of the Tournament at this year's Asian Cup, having helped the Socceroos to the trophy on home soil.
