QPR boss Warburton looking for more progress as he signs new deal

Mark Warburton spoke of the importance of continuing to work hard after he signed a new deal with QPR.

Warburton joined the R’s in the summer of 2019, and guided them to 13th in his first season in charge. He followed that up with a ninth placed finish last season.

Warburton said: “I am delighted to have been given the opportunity to continue the development of the squad and to work with the staff in taking the club forward.

“We have improved each season, we are in good shape but now we have to keep building.

“Going into my third season here there is a very evident expectation which is testament to the players for their strong finish to last year.

“That now sets the bar. We have to push on from there. We are in a very privileged position to work in football and we must work hard to justify the faith of the board and the supporters.”

QPR CEO Lee Hoos added: “This new contract is fully deserved. Over the past two years Mark has worked tirelessly to move the club into a far stronger position, both on and off the pitch.

“The manager deserves enormous credit for the part he has played in building the squad we now have in place.

“The supporters are enjoying the football and, just as importantly, they are proud of the players we have wearing the QPR shirt.”
