"I played with Hamburg against the dlub two years ago in the Europa League. It was very nice to play at Craven Cottage with a fantastic crowd and I have enjoyed a good relationship with every member of the club I have met since.
"I’m very happy to be part of what is happening at Fulham. The club is doing very well and that was why I decided to come here.
