LONDON - Fulham have signed Arsenal and
Switzerland defender Philippe Senderos for an undisclosed fee,
the Premier League club said on Tuesday.
"Philippe is a player that I have admired for a very long
time since he captained Switzerland to the UEFA Under-17
Championship in 2002," Fulham manager Roy Hodgson told the club
website.
"He is a strong defender who has great aerial presence at
both ends of the field and has a superb work ethic which is a
vital component for any team's success. I am very much looking
forward to working with Philippe next season."
The 25-year-old, who joined Arsenal in 2003 and has had loan
spells at AC Milan and Everton, is part of Switzerland's squad
for the June 11-July 11 World Cup finals.
Senderos, who has agreed a three-year deal, has won 38 caps
for his country and scored five goals.
