QPR have appointed Gareth Ainsworth as head coach after he ended a ten-year reign in charge of Wycombe.
Former Hoops midfielder Ainsworth, 49, has signed a three-and-a-half year deal to replace Neil Critchley, who was sacked on Sunday after just 12 games in charge.
‘This is all a little bit surreal,’ said Ainsworth. ‘It has been a whirlwind two days and leaving Wycombe was very tough because of the connection there.
‘But this is QPR and when I spoke about something special forcing me away from Wycombe, this was pretty special.’
Wycombe have announced Matt Bloomfield, who played more than 500 times for the club, has ‘agreed in principle’ to become their new manager.
He has been in charge of Colchester since September.
