QPR man Bright Osayi-Samuel has described Hoops wonderkid Ebere Eze as 'one of the best'.

The winger, who signed for the west London club in the summer transfer window has played with Eze since they were at school together, meaning that the pair know each other's game inside-out.

While the 19-year-old is currently enjoying a successful loan spell at Wycombe Wanderers, Osayi-Samuel says that he can't wait to link up with his childhood friend.

Speaking to Get West London, he said: "I’d probably say Ebere is one of the best players I’ve played with.

"Even now, I can’t wait to train with him and play with him. I trained with him a couple of times at QPR and I can tell he’s one of the best, so I’m looking forward to playing with him in training or on the pitch."

In a recent fans' forum held by the club, manager Ian Holloway hinted that the pair were the future of QPR's attacking trio, something which pleased Osayi-Samuel.

He said: "It’s a good thing. It’s a boost for me to know that the manager wants me to play, and if you have something like that you know there’s a goal to push for.

"I just want to keep training hard and take my chance. I’ve played with him since we were young so I know his strengths, and he knows my strengths so to play together for QPR, which is a very big club, would be a highlight of my career.”
