Fulham have completed the signing of Russian striker Pavel Pogrebnyak.
The tall forward was under contract to Bundesliga side Stuttgart, but his contract was due to expire at the end of the season.
Pogrebnyak has been keen to leave Stuttgart to give his Euro 2012 form a shot in the arm ahead of Russia’s involvement at the tournament in Poland and the Ukraine.
Pogrebnyak joined Stuttgart in 2009 from Zenit St. Petersburg, a club he had helped to win the 2008 UEFA Cup, and top scored in the competition in the process.
He has clocked up 30 appearances for Russia with eight goals.
