Fulham completed the signing of Sander Berge from relegated Burnley for a reported £25 million ($32.8 million) on a five-year contract on Thursday. The Norway international is set to replace the departed Joao Palhinha as the club's holding midfielder after Palhinha moved to Bayern Munich in the transfer window.
"It's been a little bit back and forth the last few weeks," Berge said. "But I'm finally sitting here in the shirt in this beautiful stadium, knowing that my future is here, which feels great." Berge, who has also played for Sheffield United in the Premier League, could be in contention to make his debut for Fulham against Leicester on Saturday.
In a separate deal, Liverpool sold 19-year-old midfielder Bobby Clark to Salzburg for a reported £10 million ($13 million). Clark was one of the youngsters who helped Liverpool win the English League Cup last season.
