Spanish striker Gonzalo Garcia has joined Fulham from Real Madrid, reuniting with his former coach Alvaro Arbeloa, the Premier League club and the Spanish side announced on Monday.
The 22-year-old enjoyed his most productive season last term, scoring eight goals for Madrid, including six in La Liga. His tally featured a hat-trick against Real Betis in January.
Garcia has signed a contract with Fulham until 2031, with the club holding an option to extend the deal by a further year.
Spanish media reported the transfer fee to be around 40 million euros ($46 million), while Madrid are understood to have retained a 30% sell-on clause.
Fulham appointed Arbeloa as head coach earlier this summer. The Spaniard previously worked within Madrid’s youth set-up before taking over the top job after Xabi Alonso was sacked in January.
