Major League Soccer's fourth-best goal scorer is headed to the Premier League -- for the next four months, anyway.Ives Galarcep is reporting Kansas City Wizards striker Eddie Johnson has secured his UK work permit and signed a 3 1/2-year deal with Fulham. Johnson left the U.S. men's national team training camp a week and a half go to begin negotiations with the relegation-threatened London club, and he's reportedly fetching a transfer fee of $4 million.
There was talk that Johnson's deal might not happen after Fulham reportedly signed Marlon King away from Watford, but that deal was scuttled last week, reportedly because King failed a physical. King denies that claim.
Johnson, who rejected an offer from Derby County last August, will join fellow Americans Clint Dempsey, Carlos Bocanegra, Brian McBride and Kasey Keller at the club. He'll also join three other new Fulham transfers -- Norway defender Brede Hangeland from FC Copenhagen, Danish midfielder Leon Andreasen from Werder Bremen and Gabonese striker Daniel Cousin from Rangers.
However, with Dempsey entrenched as a starter, Cousin coming in and McBride expected to return soon from injury, how much playing time will Johnson actually get at Fulham? He won't get any in the FA Cup; Bristol Rovers took care of that. Will Dempsey move back to a midfield spot, or will Roy Hodgson employ a 4-3-3 formation to fit everyone in? And would Johnson be happy playing in the Coca-Cola Championship next year? I guess we'll find out soon enough.
