Fulham manager Roy Hodgson has continued his reshaping of the Craven
Cottage squad after snapping up Iran midfielder Andranik Teimourian
on a free transfer.
The 25-year-old has joined the Cottagers on a two-year contract
following his release by Bolton Wanderers at the end of the last
Premier League campaign.
The Iran international and member of their 2006 World Cup squad made
30 appearances for the Trotters following his arrival at the club
two years ago.
Hodgson has already added Hungary midfielder Zoltan Gera and
Darlington’s highly-rated young goalkeeper David Stockdale to his
ranks since the last campaign ended.
"Fulham has added the signing of Andranik to its summer acquisitions,"
read a club statement.
"The 25-year-old Armenian-Iranian defensive midfielder has played
most recently for Bolton Wanderers and the Iran national football team.
"The player joins Fulham on a two-year deal until the summer of 2010."
