Northern Ireland striker David Healy has joined Fulham on a four-year deal from League One side Leeds United. The 27-year-old former Preston man is believed to have cost in the region of £2.5 million.
Healy, who learnt his trade at Manchester United, has the Northern Ireland goalscoring record of 29 goals in 56 games and nine so far in their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign, making him the top scorer in Europe.
He is reunited with his former national team manager Sanchez and joins compatriots Steven Davis, Aaron Hughes and Chris Baird at Craven Cottage.
At Leeds, Healy was an enigmatic figure, often criticised for inconsistency at club level and scoring many of his goals from the bench. He hit 29 in three seasons but could not help the Elland Road club avoid relegation to League One.

ReplyDeleteWith all this talk about Malouda does anyone know if he will play full minuites, or is this going to be a case of robben subbing in every 3rd game or so.
ReplyDeleteAlso, no one seems to have mentioned Lampard. Are we expecting another quiet season from him?
