Fulham have wrapped up the signing of midfielder Dickson Etuhu from Sunderland for an undisclosed fee, on a three-year contract.
The 26-year-old Nigeria international leaves the Black Cats after just one season, having previously enjoyed spells with Norwich City, Preston North end and Manchester City.
Cottagers boss Roy Hodgson told the club's official website: "It's no secret that we've been in the market for a defensive midfield player over the summer and I'm pleased to welcome Dickson to Fulham.
"Dickson fits the profile we were seeking. His athleticism, strength and brand of football will offer a new dimension to players we have available in midfield.
"The transfer window closes in a few days' time and I'm delighted with the signings we have made this summer.
"A great deal of credit must go to those working behind the scenes, who have worked tirelessly to secure the players we have targeted."
