Ireland U21 starlet Conor Masterson signs contract extension with QPR

Conor Masterson is enjoying a special birthday celebration today after extending his stay at Queens Park Rangers.

The centre-half turned 22-years-old today as he penned a contract extension at Loftus Road, which will keep him at the London club in 2023.

The Kildare native joined the Championship side last year after coming through the ranks at Liverpool, but he failed to make a competitive appearance for the Reds. 

He made 13 appearances as well as starring for Stephen Kenny's ireland Under-21 side.

“This is a nice birthday present and I’m buzzing! I have enjoyed every moment at QPR, the opportunities I have had and I am grateful to be able to sign a new deal,” Masterson said. 

“At Liverpool I really enjoyed it and learned a lot but I needed to play first-team football and QPR gave me that opportunity.

“I was nervous at the time but I was excited as well to join QPR. I just wanted to get into it and I have always said that as soon as I got here, the welcome I had from the club was great. It was a good fit for me.”
