"I have had an amazing 14 years at this football club as a coach after what was a very special period as a QPR player," he told the club's website.
"Everyone who knows me knows what this club means to me and how proud I have been to represent it.
"There have been so many special memories to enjoy and savour. From a coaching perspective, being lucky enough to work with my own son meant so much. Watching Darnell come through the system to play for the first team ranks right up there.

Furlong represented the likes of Coventry City, Watford, Chelsea and Birmingham City over a 20-year playing career.
