Queens Park Rangers midfielder Hogan Ephraim has joined League One leaders Charlton Athletic on a loan deal until January.
The 23-year-old, who has struggled for starting opportunities at Loftus Road this season, said that he had no hesitation in joining former West Ham United teammate Chris Powell at the Valley.
"I know the manager and I played with him at West Ham, where Alex Dyer was as well," he told the club's official website.
"I need to get back to my best and I know the training under them will be first class, and it's just confirmed it was the right decision because the training so far is different class.
"The first session I had was the best training session I've had since left West Ham - it was that good. I felt I made the right decision and I'm looking forward to it."
Ephraim was not named on QPR's 25-man Premier League squad list for this season.
