Adel Taarabt: 'I'll give my all for Queens Park Rangers'

Adel Taarabt has insisted that he will give his best when selected to play for Queens Park Rangers.

The 25-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan with AC Milan and was known to be keen to sign on at the San Siro on a permanent basis during the summer.

However, that move fell through and having made his second appearance of the season from the bench against West Ham United yesterday afternoon, the playmaker has vowed to "work hard".

"I had a taste of something different last year, playing in the Champions League at a big club. That is why I wanted to move. Not because I do not want to be at QPR, because it was a big opportunity for me," he told the London Evening Standard.

"I was in the middle of a transfer and it did not happen for whatever reasons. It was difficult for me because I thought I was moving. In the end it did not happen, so I am here now and have to work hard to get back in the team and help QPR win games.

"Do not forget that this club has helped me a lot. I am one of the longest-serving players here now, and I still love the club. It will always be in my heart. I am very concentrated on QPR and giving my best."

Following two loan stints at Loftus Road, Taarabt joined QPR from Tottenham Hotspur in 2010.
