The 26-year-old Norwegian international midfielder has signed for Fulham from Norwegian side Lillestrom for an undisclosed fee on a three-year contract.

"It is a dream come true for me to have signed for Fulham and I am looking forward to joining the team for pre-season training now the agreement is complete," he told the official Fulham website

"Obviously I know Brede (Hangeland) and Erik (Nevland) very well from the national team and they have only good things to say about the club.

"Fulham had a fantastic season last year under Roy Hodgson who is a manager I admire very much, his record in Scandinavia speaks for itself and I am very excited about working with him over the coming months and to being part of Fulham football club at such an exciting time."
