Grygera set for Fulham move

Zdenek Grygera is on the verge of a move from Juventus to Fulham. The 31 year old is set to join Fulham for a reported 1.5m GBP.

Grygera had spent four years in Italy with Juve, and has decided to try his luck in the Premier League.

"Hopefully it will come out well. I take Fulham as a big call and will experience another top league," Grygera told CTK.

"The Premier League is probably the most followed competition at the moment and I am tempted by the prospect of being a part of it.

"This spell can teach me a lot as a footballer as well as a human being. I will come to know a different mentality and learn another language. The same goes for all my family.

"It is not easy for me to be leaving Juventus. Juventus is Juventus and, moreover, I have come to love Italy. But the situation there has developed in recent weeks that I would hardly make it into the squad of 18 or 20 players.

"I have decided to leave and Fulham are an excellent option."
