QPR boss McClaren added: “I am delighted for Ebere and for the club.
“The club have done a fantastic job in recruiting him and getting him into the Under-23s where he has had a great education from all the coaches.
“This contract is a deserved reward for all his hard work and the hard work of the club.
“He still has a lot to work on and to improve on but we feel, he feels and his family feel this is the best place for him right now.
“He has got a great attitude and has so much energy and enthusiasm, which is a big plus.
“He’s a huge talent and could be a very special player. ‘Could be’ are two big words and we have to help him fulfil his potential.
“So many promising young players get a good contract and down tools, stopping their development. We don’t want that to happen and I am sure with Ebere it won’t.”
