Queens Park Rangers sign Poland international Ariel Borysiuk

Poland international midfielder Ariel Borysiuk has become Queens Park Rangers' first signing of the summer.

Borysiuk, 24, has signed a three-year deal with the Loftus Road club and joins from Legia Warsaw an undisclosed fee.

Rangers manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, hoping to challenge for promotion from the Championship next season, said Borysiuk was "built for English football."

He told the official QPR website: "He likes to get stuck in and stamp his authority on games. He's young, committed and plays with great passion.

"Most of his good work goes unnoticed, but when he's not playing you miss him -- and that's a good quality for a defensive-minded midfield player."

Hasselbaink said Borysiuk was excited about the prospect of playing for Rangers, with the player adding: "This is a great club with a big tradition.

"I had some options but when I was young I dreamed about playing in England. This is a great step forward for me and I can't wait to start."
