Brazilian number one set to seal Loftus Road switch
The English Premier League is the best division in the world. Everyone wants to play here and I am no different."
Julio Cesar
EXCLUSIVE: JULIO AGREES DEAL
Brazilian number one set to seal Loftus Road switch
LEGENDARY Brazilian number one Julio Cesar has agreed a four-year deal at Loftus Road.
The 32 year-old goalkeeper – who has 64 international caps to his name – has agreed a contract until the summer of 2016, after leaving Inter Milan.
The deal, however, is subject to the player receiving international clearance and being granted a visa.
The imminent arrival of Cesar – who won the Champions League and five titles with Inter during his seven years in the San Siro – represents quite a coup for QPR manager Mark Hughes, who expressed his delight at the arrival of the experienced shot-stopper.
“It’s fantastic that we’ve been able to attract a keeper of such outstanding ability to the club,” said Hughes.
“When the opportunity to sign a player of his quality presents itself, you have to act quickly and we’ve managed to get the deal done.
“It was always my intention to bring two goalkeepers to the club this summer and now we’ve got fantastic competition in that department.”
Hughes added: “He’s an outstanding individual, as well as being an outstanding player.
“Not only will we benefit from his ability, but we’ll also benefit from his experience and winning mentality.”
Cesar – who was voted the third best goalkeeper in the world in 2009, as well as Serie A keeper of the year in 2009 and 2010 – told http://www.qpr.co.uk: “I’m so happy and excited to be here.
“The ambition of this club was presented to me by the chairman and the coach and I couldn’t have been more impressed.
“The desire to achieve things at this club is clear for everyone to see and I wanted to be part of that. I have come here to compete for the shirt and give my all.”
He added: “The English Premier League is the best division in the world.
“Everyone wants to play here and I am no different. Now I just want to give my all to the club and show the fans what I am capable of.
“This is a really exciting move for me and I can’t wait to get going.”
Cesar, who will wear the number 33 shirt, is expected to be available for selection for the R’s home fixture against Chelsea after the international break.

TONY HAILS CESAR DEAL
Chairman elated with Julio signing
We want players who give their everything to the team; want to excel; and want to be part of this venture with us."
Tony Fernandes
QPR CHAIRMAN Tony Fernandes has hailed the looming arrival of Brazilian goalkeeper Julio Cesar to Loftus Road.
The 32 year-old shot-stopper has agreed a four-year deal in W12 and will officially become a QPR player once he receives international clearance and is granted a visa in the coming days.
Speaking exclusively to www.qpr.co.uk, Fernandes said: “This is a really significant coup for the football club.
“Julio’s track-record and standing within the game speaks for itself and we are delighted to have him on board to compete with Rob Green and the other keepers at the club for the coveted number one jersey.”
Fernandes added: “I think it shows our ambition that we’ve managed to attract a player of Julio’s undoubted talent and class to Loftus Road.
“He’s at the peak of his powers as a goalkeeper and I’m sure the Rangers fans are as excited as I am about seeing him play for us”
Cesar will become Mark Hughes’s ninth signing of a busy summer, but Fernandes refutes the claim that the club are spending beyond their means, adding: “There’s been a lot written in the press in the last few weeks and this is as good a time as any to set the record straight.
“We’re not panic-buying; we’re not spending beyond our means; and we’re certainly not throwing money away like some are reporting.
“We’ve got a very strict and precise business plan in place at this club and any deal we do for a player is well within our budget.”
He added: “We’ve sold or released 14 players this summer and Julio is our ninth arrival.
“This summer was always going to see a big overhaul in terms of players, but we’ve been very prudent with the deals we’ve done and we’re building for the future.
“We are clear and forthright in our strategy. We want players who give their everything to the team; want to excel; and want to be part of this venture with us.
“We are fully aware it will take time for this time to gel. We are still relatively new to the Premier League.
“It’s about stabilising and then moving forward over the years. It a cliché, but it’s a marathon not a sprint, and we are building all the time.”
