Fulham have completed the signing of midfielder Shea Charles from Championship side Southampton, according to BBC News, with the 22-year-old putting pen to paper on a five-year deal at Craven Cottage that includes the option of a further 12 months.
Charles, who is versatile enough to operate across midfield, told the club he was thrilled by the move, describing it as "a massive privilege" to join Fulham and adding that he hopes the switch will "really kickstart" his Premier League career after time away from the top flight with Southampton.
The report does not detail a transfer fee, but confirms the deal has been finalised and Charles is now a Fulham player. His arrival adds further depth to Marco Silva's midfield options ahead of the new season, as the Cottagers continue to strengthen their squad for another top-flight campaign.
