Ageymang was keen to join QPR

The former Gillingham player, 27, has been handed a four-and-a-half-year contract by the Loftus Road club.

Preston received a number of enquiries about Agyemang, who had struggled to hold down a place in the North End starting line-up.

QPR are also looking to complete the signing of Wigan defender Fitz Hall before the weekend. �
