Fulham have completed the signing of centre-back Joachim Andersen on a season-long loan from Lyon.

The 24-year-old has previously been linked with the likes of Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur and was part of the Lyon squad which made it to the semi-finals of the Champions League last season.

The Denmark international joins the Cottagers on loan for the 2020-21 season as Scott Parker attempts to firm up a defence which has conceded 11 goals in their opening four Premier League games of the campaign.

"I'm really happy to make this move. I'm looking forward to playing in the Premier League and playing for a nice club like Fulham," Andersen told the club's official website.

"It's a league I've been following since I was a child and it's a big, big dream to play in the Premier League, so I'm looking forward to it."

Fulham owner Tony Khan added: "I'm thrilled to announce the arrival of defender Joachim Andersen to Fulham Football Club on a season-long loan from Olympique Lyonnais.

"Joachim has gained experience and built his reputation throughout top leagues in Europe, playing in Eredivisie, Serie A, and Ligue 1, and this past year at the highest level in Champions League.

"He was a top target for us this summer, we worked hard to bring him here, and it's so great that he's joining us and that he wants to help us fight to maintain our status in the Premier League! Come on Fulham!"

Andersen becomes Fulham's ninth signing of the summer window following their promotion from the Championship.
