Fulham Sign Former Liverpool Winger

Fulham have made their first signing of the winter transfer window as they have roped in former Liverpool winger Ryan Babel for an undisclosed fee.

Babel is very much acquainted with the Premier League as he previously donned the Liverpool jersey for three and a half seasons. The experienced wide man has been brought by Claudio Ranieri in a bid to strengthen their attacking contingent which has been largely ineffective this term.

Goals have become dried for the Cottagers who are deeply submerged in the relegation zone. The 32 years old Dutch international can play across the front three and would be eager to prove his worth once again in the English top flight.

Babel said, “My first impressions are good and I’m very excited.

“I definitely have faith that Fulham can stay up. That’s one of the reasons that I’m here, to try and help that to happen. I’m ready to go, I’m excited and I can’t wait.”

Owner Tony Khan who invested a lot since the club got promoted to the Premier league sounds very optimistic. “Ryan has excelled at playing attacking football on both the club and international stage, and we welcome that experience as we build our squad for a strong second-half push with nine important home fixtures remaining, beginning Sunday when Spurs visit the Cottage.

“Ryan scored 15 goals across all competitions last season and arrives with the support of our Manager. Claudio and I are confident that Ryan’s return to the Premier League here will be every bit as good for him as his addition will be good for our squad. Come on Fulham!”
