The former Olympique Marseille star joins the Hoops on-loan after struggling to find first-team football at San Siro
Left-back, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rangers-c40314, on-loan from A.C Milan.
Taiwo joined the Italian Champions on a free transfer in the summer transfer window after his contract with Olympique Marseille expired. However, the Nigerian international failed to make a mark at San Siro, managing only eight
appearances until January.
The full-back was linked with a host of clubs throughout the January transfer window including Serie A side, Genoa.  The agent of the former Marseille star recently admitted that his client is extremely disappointed with the way
things have gone at Milan, and he is looking for an exit. However, he insisted that the 26-year-old will not be joining the Marassi club, as they have not enquired about him.
While talking to the reporters, agent, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152 Parisi, said,
“Yes, it is possible that Taiwo will leave and we are looking for a solution. There could be some developments today and we’ll see what happens. A move abroad is certainly the most likely. I can categorically rule out any interest
from Genoa, as they simply did not request him. In January we often see associations between clubs and players that are in reality unfounded.”
“The lad is certainly disappointed at the way things are going. He arrived with a great deal of enthusiasm, but was unable to express himself to his full potential."
It is believed that Taiwo will remain at QPR for the remainder of the 2011/12 season, and the English side reserves the right to sign him on permanent basis in the summer.
The Hoops recently witnessed a managerial change at the club, as Neil Warnock was replaced by Mark Hughes, following the club’s deteriorating position in the league table. The former Manchester City manager is a huge admirer of
Taiwo, as he wanted to sign him when he was in-charge of Fulham.
Milan will be forced to dip in the market for a new left-back, as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luca-Antonini-c22503 has also continued to struggle in the role.
