Caulker: Redknapp key to QPR choice

Steven Caulker has completed his move from Cardiff City to QPR.

Caulker has completed his move to QPR in an £8million deal from Cardiff City - after being convinced by the prospect of playing alongside Rio Ferdinand.

The 22-year-old England international was allowed to travel to the London club for tests after Cardiff accepted an offer and he officially signed for the club on Tuesday.

"'Harry was a big factor for me, having worked with him at Tottenham.

"Being able to play with Rio Ferdinand was also a big draw. He has been a role model for many years, along with Ledley King.

"Our first aim this season has to be to get to 40 points, to make sure we stay up."
