ISTANBUL (AA) – English Premier League club Fulham confirmed on Thursday the inking of Sander Berge from Burnley for an undisclosed fee on a five-year deal.

"It feels fantastic. It’s been a little bit back and forth the last few weeks, but I’m finally sitting here in the shirt in this beautiful stadium, knowing that my future is here, which feels great," Berge said in a statement.

"Fulham has always been a team that excited me. I’ve played them both in the Championship and Premier League, and it’s fantastic how they play, 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1," he added.

Berge previously played for Valerenga, KRC Genk, and Sheffield United.

The Norwegian midfielder joined The Cottagers with a club option to extend for a further 12 months.

The 26-year-old will wear the number 16 jersey.
