Fulham double sweep Reed, Lemina from Southampton

Fulham strengthened their midfield for their Premier League return Sunday, signing Harrison Reed and Mario Lemina from Southampton.

Reed, who impressed on loan at Craven Cottage during last season's promotion from the Championship, joined Fulham permanently for an undisclosed fee. The 25-year-old inked a four-year contract with the club.

Lemina, 26, arrived on a season-long loan with an option to buy at the end of the 2020-21 term. The Gabonese international spent the 2019-20 season on loan at Galatasaray, where he started 20 times in the Turkish Super Lig. He's made 46 top-flight appearances for the Saints.

The pair arrive behind incoming transfers Anthony Knockaert - who also spent the 2019-20 campaign on loan at Fulham - and former Wigan Athletic full-back Antonee Robinson this summer.
