Martin Jol delighted with 'influential' Giorgos Karagounis

By , Reporter
Martin Jol is pleased to have brought Giorgos Karagounis to Fulham.

Fulham manager Martin Jol has expressed his delight at signing the "influential" Giorgos Karagounis.

The Greece captain made the move to Craven Cottage on a free transfer on Tuesday after failing to agree a new deal with former club Panathaniakos.

The 35-year-old joins to strengthen the Cottagers midfield after the losses of Moussa Dembele and Clint Dempsey to Tottenham Hotspur, and Jol is pleased to have acquired the services of the Greek maestro.

"Giorgos Karagounis has a wealth of club and international experience and I'm happy that he's joined us for this season," said Jol.

"He's been an influential player for his club sides and is a renowned player in world football as he's about to become the most-capped player for Greece.

"He brings many certain qualities to our squad."

Karagounis has earned a record-equalling 120 caps for his country.
