QPR planning for the future – Ferdinand

Les Ferdinand has told QPR’s website the signings of teenagers Axel Prohouly and Joseph N’Guessan underline a change of direction in the club’s transfer strategy.

France youth international midfielder Prohouly, 17, and former Stevenage forward N’Guessan, 19, will be added to Rangers’ development squad next season.

And director of football Ferdinand believes recruiting talented youngsters and moulding them into first-team players will benefit the club in the long term.

He said: “Both Axel and Joseph are players that we’ve identified with the future in mind.

“While there is much talk currently surrounding our transfer activity at first-team level, it’s important that we also recruit and produce players from the levels below.

“We’ve publicly stated that’s our aim moving forward, and we’re pleased to have added both Axel and Joseph to our EDS squad.”
