HARRY REDKNAPP has confirmed Clint Hill is the new QPR captain.





The 34 year-old has been captaining the side in recent weeks despite Ji-Sung Park’s return to fitness and Redknapp told www.qpr.co.uk: “Clint is a great character, a good lad and a fantastic professional.





“He leads by example and has been superb for me since the moment I walked through the door.





“You know what you’re going to get from Clint when he plays and that’s 100 per-cent. He puts his body on the line for the club and that’s what we need.

“We are in a battle to stay in the Premier League and we need players like him.”





Hill, who has made 89 appearances in all competitions since joining QPR on a free transfer in June 2010, said: “It’s a very proud moment for me.





“I’m honoured and privileged. I’m sure it will be something I look back on in years to come with great admiration.





“Ji and Ryan have both had the honour of captaining the side this season and I’m relishing following in their footsteps.”
