QPR confirm three transfer loan agreements as youth international departs

QPR have confirmed three out of transfer window deals, allowing three players to leave on loan in a bid to get regular first team football. The Hoops are currently focused on getting back into the top half of the table, currently 14th after a defeat to strugglers Portsmouth last time out.

Marti Cifuentes has done a fine job at Loftus Road, but he will want his team to have taken a step forward this season when all is said and done, and a top half finish will certainly represent that.

Though, only seven points off the top six as things stand, some fans may still harbour some hopes of a late push towards the playoffs. The Hoops have backed Cifuentes significantly, bringing in 17 players overall across the summer and winter transfer windows, and QPR now have a pretty large squad, made up of 29 senior players.

While the depth is nice to have, it does leave little room for young players to break in, and that makes loan exits important. In that vein, the Hoops have agreed to send three young players out on loan to non-league, with non-league sides still able to sign players on loan.

Wales youth international Alfie Tuck has joined Farnborough Town in the National League South, while Jaiden Putman and Rohan Vaughan have both joined National League North side Oxford City. Oxford are currently 20th in the North, while Farnborough are 10th.

Vaghan is a 19-year-old forward who was initially signed from Burnely, while Putman is a centre-back who spent the first part of the season on loan with Barking. Welsh midfielder Tuck was with Enfield Town until January.

Away from those three deals, young goalkeeper Conor Clark has also had his loan extended with Erith Town, remaining with them until the end of the current season.
