Fulham have completed the signing of midfielder Sasa Lukic from Torino for a reported £8m.

The 26-year-old Serbia international joins the Cottagers on a four-and-a-half year deal, and Fulham also possess an option to extend his stay for an additional 12 months until 2028.

"I'm very happy to have signed, and to now be a part of Fulham's squad. I can't wait to get started and meet with the head coach, the players, and the staff, and I'm looking forward to training with them when I arrive in England," Lukic told the official Fulham website after signing his contract in Turin.

"I've seen Fulham play this season and they've been playing very well. They have a good squad, with a great history. A lot of great players have played for the club in its history, and they have a lot of great players currently, like my compatriot Aleksandar Mitrovic."

Cottagers owner Tony Khan added: "I'm delighted to welcome Sasa Lukic to Fulham. He's a talented and versatile midfielder whom we've followed closely for years.

"Sasa's arrival will strengthen our team; I'm glad that he's come to Fulham, and I expect he'll flourish in our squad under the great coaching of Marco Silva! Come on Fulham!"

Lukic came through the youth system at Partizan Belgrade before joining Torino in 2016, and the midfielder leaves having registered 14 goals and six assists in 168 games for the Italian side.

A 35-cap Serbia international, Lukic started all three of his country's games at the 2022 World Cup as the Eagles suffered a group-stage exit in Qatar.
