Fulham have sealed the signing of Mexico international defender Carlos Salcido for an undisclosed fee from PSV Eindhoven.

The 30-year-old left-sided stopper, who featured for his country at the World Cup finals earlier this summer, has signed a three-year contract at Craven Cottage, having spent the last four years in the Netherlands.

Manager Mark Hughes told the club's official website: "Carlos is a versatile defender who can play in a number of positions, so he gives us a number of options defensively.

"It is pleasing that we have been able to make additions of extremely high quality during this window and that these players will help us progress in the right direction.

"There are still a few days before the window ends, which may see some more activity, so I'm very satisfied with the way things are shaping up for the season ahead."
