06 August 2013 - 00:23

Newcastle United have confirmed the signing of  Loic Remy on a season-long loan deal from Championship club Queens' Park Rangers according to the club's Official website.

  • Chelsea planning shock move for Man City winger?
  • Arsenal handed injury boost on defender ahead of Bournemouth clash

  • The former Marseille forward made a switch to Loftus Road in January and notched up 6 goals in 14 appearances as he tried to help the Hoops in avoiding relegation in vain. 



    Loic Remy will now join Alan Pardew's French revolution at St.James' Park as he tries to cement his place in the French squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup to be held in Brazil 



    He told Newcastle’s official website: "It will be a huge honour to play for such a big club. I was very flattered by the club's interest in me back in January and also very happy that they showed interest in me again this summer.



    "The Premier League is the best league in the world and that's where I want to play.



    "I am very motivated this year to get into the World Cup squad for my country. I know in order to do that I need to have a big season and a successful campaign with Newcastle United.



    "I am focussed on helping the team achieve success this season and scoring as many goals as I can."



    While a statement from Queens Park Rangers added: “Remy signalled his intentions to the club earlier this summer of his desire to play in the top-flight in a World Cup year and following the recent addition of Charlie Austin to the R’s ranks, a deal has now been agreed with Alan Pardew’s side.”
