WINGER Mide Shodipo rose through the QPR youth ranks before making his Rangers debut at the start of the 2016/17 Sky Bet Championship campaign.

Some fine performances for the R’s saw the Republic of Ireland Under-21 international being tipped for big things, but continued setbacks hindered his initial success in west London and having only made 32 Rangers appearances since 2016, the 24-year-old will be keen to build on some important loan spells in the EFL.

Stints at Port Vale and Colchester United were then followed up with a much more successful spell at Oxford United throughout the 2020/21 campaign, where 10 goals in 39 appearances helped the U’s reach the League One play-off semi-finals.

Mide spent the 2021/22 season on loan at Sheffield Wednesday, but his time with the Owls was hampered by injury.
