David Stockdale completes Brighton & Hove Albion move

Brighton & Hove Albion sign goalkeeper David Stockdale from Championship rivals Fulham.

Brighton & Hove Albion have announced that they have completed the signing of goalkeeper David Stockdale from Championship rivals Fulham.

The 28-year-old has signed a three-year contract with the Seagulls after the two clubs agreed an undisclosed fee.

Manager Sami Hyypia told the club's website: "We are delighted to have completed David's signing from Fulham, and I am pleased to welcome him to the club.

"It is a transfer we have been working on for some time, and David is a goalkeeper with excellent pedigree. He has got very good experience of the Premier League and Championship, but at 28 is in his prime.

"Antti [Niemi, the club's goalkeeping coach] knows David very well from their time together as players at Fulham. He knows his strengths and attributes, and David was on the fringes of the England senior squad not too long ago."

Stockdale joined Fulham from Darlington in 2008.
