Geoff Cameron is officially back with EFL Championship side Queens Park Rangers on a permanent deal.
The club announced on Thursday that Cameron signed a one-year deal after passing his medical. The 34-year-old made 19 league appearances for the Rangers last season, scoring one goal and adding one assist. He missed a chunk of the season though due to an ankle injury.
“The manager [Mark Warburton] wants to get the ball down and play good football. Hopefully myself and Angel [Rangel], who has also come back, can use our experience to help what is a young squad,” Cameron said.
“I’m here to help the team in any way that I can — whether that’s leadership on the pitch or off it as well. For me, I’m excited for this role and I’m excited to be here. I just want to enjoy my football, like I did here last season.”
Cameron comes from Stoke City, in which he totaled 168 appearances from 2012-17. He featured many times for the Potters in the English Premier League, but joined QPR on-loan after Stoke’s relegation in Summer 2018.
Conveniently, QPR will face Stoke in the first league match of the 2019-20 EFL Championship season.
Still playing very competitively soccer at 34…..a DEFENSIVE MIDFIELDER, strong enough to play CB and versatile enough to play a “quick paced” position like RB. WISH WE HAD YOU ON THE USMNT FOR LEADERSHIP (for young players) on what it takes to be a true professional at the highest level. Respect!!!
Don’t worry. We have the Philosopher Jogger- Michael Bradley for leadership along with Omar Gonzales and Jozy Altidore.
Cameron playing RB at this point would be like Ream playing LB. He doesn’t have the pace anymore, sadly he’d have been just as overrun by Mexico as Bradley was. 19th place in the Championship is not significantly better than MLS. The US needs to move forward not picking another guy past his prime. All for a thank you for your service testimonial.
Ah Johnnyrazor!!!
“The US needs to move forward not picking another guy past his prime.”…THAT WE CAN AGREE ON. That means a LOT OF PEOPLE should not even be called into camp anymore ?
Unlikely to happen though. A lot falls on if GGG wants to continue with Adams at RB and how fast youngsters like Dest and Gloster get first team minutes.
In what world is QPR in a better league than Toronto? Cameron has been a victim of multiple nagging injuries making his availability questionable going back 2 or 3 years, the death knell for a professional soccer players career.. Please, your penchant to find some way to denigrate Bradley who wasn’t even mentioned in the article speaks volumes about your bias. What did MB or BB jilt your sister at some point? Your hatred seems to know no bounds or make any sense.
