Andrew Johnson back in tandem with Mark Hughes at QPR
Hughes worked with former England frontman Johnson, 31, during their time at Fulham, while Nelson will sign on at Loftus Road following the end of his contract at Tottenham.
Johnson feels he is joining Rangers at an exciting time, the west-London club having secured another season in the top flight on the final day, despite a last-gasp defeat at champions Manchester City.

“Those were factors in me joining, but this is a big, big club.
“I have spoken to the chairman and Mark, who both have great ambition for QPR, and it is something that I wanted to be a part of.”
