Ian Holloway has welcomed the chance to work with Ravel Morrison after the 23-year-old forward joined QPR from Lazio on loan until the end of the season.

The Rangers boss said: “QPR fans know me and what I’m all about and they know I love giving a chance to players who I believe in — and that’s the case with Ravel.

“Sometimes it takes a few setbacks for players to flourish. It’s all about hard work for him now. He’s ready to work and ready to show what he’s about, and it’s up to me to show him the way and create an environment for him to thrive in.

“He’s got some work to get where he needs to be, but we will help him as a group and then we can be positive together going forward.”

Former Manchester United starlet Morrison, who enjoyed a successful loan spell at Loftus Road during the second half of the 2013-14 season when on loan from West Ham, joined Lazio in 2015 but found first-team chances hard to come by with the Italian side.

Morrison said: “It’s a great opportunity for me to come back and hopefully find the form I showed the first time around. I can’t wait to play in front of the QPR fans again.”
