Thatcher Agrees Terms

The Wales international, who was desperate for a move back to the Capital as his family have failed to settle in the North-west, is to sign a three-and-a-half-year deal at Fulham on the successful completion of a medical.

The signing comes too late for the former Spurs and Leicester utility man to make his debut against Birmingham at St Andrew's on saturday so Thatcher is likely to make his Fulham bow against Aston Villa next week.
