QPR sign defender Akindileni from Aberdeen

QPR have signed centre-back Timothy Akindileni from Aberdeen.

The 17-year-old will join up with the Hoops' development squad ahead of next season.

Akindileni impressed in the youth set-up but did not play a game for the senior side for the Dons.

"I'm over the moon. There was interest from other clubs but QPR just stood out for me because the development here for young players is extraordinary," he told the club's website.

"You can see it through all the young players coming up to the first team, and that's what really persuaded me to come here."
