“QPR have completed the loan signing of Ravel Morrison from Lazio until the end of the season,” a statement confirmed.
“The 23-year-old attacker will stay at Loftus Road for the remainder of the 2016/17 campaign, with Rangers having the option to exercise a permanent agreement at the end of the season.
“Morrison, of course, enjoyed a successful loan spell in W12 during the second half of the 2013/14 season, scoring six goals in 15 appearances for the R’s in the Championship, as the Hoops achieved promotion via the play-offs.
“Now, he’s ready to reignite his career with QPR and make the most of a ‘great opportunity’ at Loftus Road.”
Morrison also spoke to the website.
“I am really pleased to be back here. It’s a great opportunity for me to come back and hopefully find the form I showed the first time around.
“I am ready to work hard and focus fully on playing for Rangers.”
