London: Dutch international goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg moved to Fulham from Italian Serie A club Roma on a four-year contract, the English Premier League club said.
Stekelenburg, who signed Wednesday, was the fourth signing of the Premier League team following earlier moves for German full-back Sascha Riether, who spent last season on loan at Craven Cottage, Ghanaian midfielder Derek Boateng, and Venezuelan defender Fernando Amorebieta, reports Xinhua.
Stekelenburg, 30, has won 54 caps for the Netherlands and had two Dutch titles with Ajax in 2004 and 2011 before he joined Roma.
Veteran Australian goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer says he plans to leave Fulham after the English Premier League club signed Netherlands international Maarten Stekelenburg from AS Roma in a four-year deal.
Schwarzer told News Limited newspapers on Thursday "I've been hearing that for a while, so it's no great surprise and I'll be looking for another club."
The 40-year-old Schwarzer, who played in a 1-1 World Cup qualifying draw against Japan on Tuesday and will play again for Australia in a qualifier against Jordan next week in Melbourne, added: "Nothing has been sorted at the moment, the Japan game was the most important thing on the agenda so I'm worried about the Australia games now."
