QPR have confirmed that they have recalled Darnell Furlong and Michael Doughty from their loan spells at Swindon.
West London Sport revealed last month that Rangers would activate clause enabling them to cut short the season-long loan deals during January..
Right-back Furlong, 21, has impressed for the Robins this season.
The son of former R’s striker Paul Furlong has made five first-team appearances for QPR and previously been on loan at Cambridge United and Northampton.
Midfielder Doughty, 24, was in his second loan stay at Swindon and his seventh spell away from QPR in total. He has also been at Stevenage, Aldershot, Gillingham, Crawley and St Johnstone.
Holloway spoke enthusiastically about both players after seeing them in action in November.
The day after his return for a second spell as Rangers manager was announced, Holloway fulfilled his final obligations as a television pundit at Swindon’s home game against Charlton.
“I watched Darnell Furlong and Michael Doughty. I was buzzing! They played so well the both of them,” Holloway said.
“It was like, ‘wow!’. Fantastic. They’re tender but the young one (Doughty) has got 140 games under his belt already.
“When I met them afterwards it was just fantastic. And if I can help young Furs after I helped old Furs – it’s just unbelievable.
“Furs (Paul Furlong) got hammered and I stood up for him. I told people to come to my garden and take me on. You’ve got to stand up for your players.”
