Goalkeeper Murphy Cooper has signed a contract extension with QPR.

Cooper's new deal comes following a hugely productive loan spell at Stevenage in League One last season, where the 23-year-old kept 16 clean sheets in 40 appearances.

Murphy's time with Stevenage followed another successful loan at Swindon Town in 2023/24.

"I'm really, really, really pleased," said Cooper, who has been with the R's since the age of 10.

"I've been at QPR a long time and I want to continue to be here, so I was delighted when the club offered me a new contract - I was itching to sign it.

"I love it here."

Speaking about his impressive campaign at Stevenage, Cooper added: "I want to do as well as I can to come back and play here.

"I really enjoyed my time at Stevenage and it was probably the best season I've had so far - the highest level I've played at, too.

"I played 40 games, kept quite a few clean sheets and put in some good performances, so it was brilliant for me. It was a great squad, good management and I really fitted in well and enjoyed my time there. I'm really happy with how my season went."

While Murphy has his eyes firmly set on becoming QPR's number one goalkeeper, he admits he is not averse to enjoying another spell out on loan in 2025/26.

He said: "It's just about bridging the gap to eventually be the number one here. I just need to keep going, keep playing and keep improving.โ€

QPR CEO Christian Nourry commented: "We were super impressed by Murphy's progression at Stevenage, where he further developed his shot-stopping and defensive capacity from set-pieces.

"We believe in his long-term potential - he deserves this new contract."
