QPR made a late swoop on deadline day Thursday to sign striker Bobby Zamora from Fulham for an undisclosed fee.

Zamora, 31, put pen to paper on a two-and-a-half year deal at Loftus Road to link back up with former Cottagers manager Mark Hughes.

"Bobby is a guy that makes things happen on the pitch, be it scoring goals or creating chances for others," said Hughes. "He's a great foil for any team.

"We needed a player of his ilk at the Football Club and I couldn't be more delighted."

Zamora becomes QPR's fifth signing of the January transfer window, joining Djibril Cisse, Taye Taiwo, Nedum Onuoha, and Samba Diakite as newcomers to Loftus Road.
