Aleksandar Mitrovic Completes Move To Fulham

Aleksandar Mitrović has completed his permanent move to Fulham.

The forward joins Slaviša Jokanović’s side for an undisclosed free, bringing an end to his three-year spell at St. James’ Park.

Twenty-three-year-old Mitrović signed for Newcastle United from Belgian outfit Anderlecht in July 2015, going on to make a total of 72 appearances for the Magpies, scoring 17 times.

The Serbia international spent a spell on loan at Craven Cottage during the second half of last season, making 17 appearances and scoring 12 times as Fulham won promotion from the Championship with a 1-0 win over Aston Villa in the play-off final at Wembley.

The club wish him well for the future.
