Fulham stay suits Mitrovic
Serbia international striker Aleksandar Mitrovic has revealed that he decided to sign a new contract with Fulham because his family is so settled in London.
The 24-year-old has agreed a deal which will keep him at Craven Cottage until the summer of 2024.
Mitrovic scored 11 Premier League goals for Fulham last season, although he could not stop the club sliding to relegation.
He signed a permanent deal with Fulham last summer after spending the second half of the 2017/18 campaign on loan at the club from Newcastle United. He scored 12 goals in less than half a season as Fulham won promotion from the Championship via the play-offs.
"I feel great. I am really happy and I am looking forward to playing here next season," Mitrovic said. "There were a lot of clubs interested but in the end I decided to stay here because I am really happy and settled at Fulham. My kids, wife, all my family are happy here. This is my home and I am really happy to sign a new deal.
"Since the first day I came here I have received a great reception from everyone in the club and the fans. I feel motivated and every morning when I come here to work, I am happy. I have found my happiness and passion here."
Fulham are 9/4 to be promoted from the Championship in the 2019/20 campaign while they are 6/5 to win their first game of the season against Barnsley on 3rd August.
