Fulham Football Club has officially
completed the signing of striker
Collins John from Dutch side FC
Twente.
The highly rated 18-year-old was
unveiled to the Fulham fans before
Saturday's Premiership match against
Tottenham Hotspur at Loftus Road.
A quick and powerful forward, John
has scored nine goals in 18
appearances for Twente this season
and has already featured in the
Dutch youth set up.
Speaking after Saturday's match,
Chris Coleman said of his new
signing:
"He's going to be a good player in
the future. We're not going to ask
too much of him too soon and we know
that we'll need to protect him.
"We've got three strikers at the
Club with a lot of experience in
Brian McBride, Barry Hayles and
Facundo Sava. With young Collins
John in the squad, we've got a bit
more strength in depth."
