Queens Park Rangers manager Mark Hughes has claimed that defender Anton Ferdinand has thrown himself into pre-season training following the "traumatic" racism trial last week.

The centre-back last week gave evidence at Westminster Magistrates' Court, where Chelsea captain John Terry was found not guilty of racially abusing the QPR player during a West London derby at Loftus Road last October.

"Anton gave his side of what happened in court and it was certainly a traumatic experience for him," said Hughes. "So far he has reacted well and is committed to the Asian tour, where we have three friendly matches to play."

The 27-year-old is currently in Malaysia with his teammates as they prepare for the new Premier League season.
