"I hope this coming season is going to be great for both the club and myself. I will give 100 per cent in every game to help QPR in the Premier League."
Earlier on Tuesday, the 47-cap Chile defender completed his medical at Loftus Road and tweeted news of his move - before later removing the post.
Redknapp's fourth summer signing follows just a day after QPR paid a fee believed to reach £6million to prise Jordon Mutch away from Cardiff.
