Fulham Sign Marseille Star In £30 Million Move

Fulham have wrapped up an excellent Transfer Deadline Day signing in the shape of Marseille player Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa.

Despite being a newly-promoted club, Fulham are pegged as everyone's surprise contenders for the season, not least because of the brilliant purchases they have made this summer window. Just today, news filtered through that Fulham were close to signing Bristol City player Joe Bryan.

The west London club got the deal for Zambo Anguissa signed and sealed, with a fee of £30 million for the defensive-midfielder, done in the last moments of the transfer window. This comes after the club bought striker Aleksandar Mitrović for a reported fee of £27 million.

The Serbian striker helped Fulham earn promotion last season, scoring 12 goals in 17 Championship games. At Newcastle United, the 23-year-old was a frustrating figure. He was loved by fans and his talent was there for all to see, but his inconsistency in front of goal mixed with his wild personality and knack for getting sent off meant he was too much of a risk for Rafa Benitez, who essentially sold him because of the arrival of an unknown quantity Muto.

Fulham were relegated to the Championship in 2014 but after several years away they're back in the Premier League again and are looking sharp.

An incredible transfer window for Fulham.
