LONDON — Denmark defender Joachim Andersen joined Fulham for a second spell after leaving Premier League rival Crystal Palace on Friday.
The center back was on loan at Fulham in the 2020-21 season and established himself as a fans’ favorite.
Andersen has now moved to Craven Cottage on a permanent basis, on a five-year deal for a reported fee of 30 million pounds ($40 million).
“It’s really nice to be here,” Andersen said. “Feels a little bit like coming home, so it’s a good feeling.”
Andersen’s signing comes after Fulham lost defenders Tosin Adarabioyo and Tim Ream on free transfers earlier in this transfer window. He is the second central defender to join the club, after Jorge Cuenca from Villarreal.
It is a blow to Palace, which is also battling to keep fellow center half Marc Guehi at the club amid interest from Newcastle.
