Jan 31, 2012, 16:15 GMT
London - Queen's Park Rangers completed the signing of Djibril Cisse from Lazio on Tuesday.
The 30-year-old former Liverpool and Sunderland striker has returned to England for a fee of around 4.2 million pounds (6.6 million dollars).
'I rate Djibril very, very highly,' said QPR manager Mark Hughes.
'I've watched him for many years and always been impressed by what he brings to the table. He's a huge threat to opposition's defences. He's got great pace, power and movement and that's something we will hopefully benefit from.'
QPR have confirmed that Cisse has signed a two-and-a-half year deal at Loftus Road and has been registered in time to make his QPR debut at Aston Villa tomorrow, subject to international clearance.
