Finnish legend joins along with defender
Fulham have secured the services of Finnish legend Jari Litmanen for the remainder of the season.
Litmanen had been training with The Cottagers in a bid to win a deal and clearly did enough for manager Roy Hodgson.
The 36-year-old brings a wealth of experience to Craven Cottage having played for Ajax, Barcelona and Liverpool during his lengthy career.
"I don't think there is a need to explain the qualities that Jari possesses as a player or the obvious reasons for wanting to bring him to Fulham, and I am delighted that he has agreed to join us for the remaining months of the season," he told the club's official website.
Skill and experience
"Although he is not entirely match fit at the moment, I have no doubt that he will have a big part to play over the coming months and that we shall benefit as a team from his skill and experience."
Litmanen is not the only addition on transfer deadline day as Finland international defender Toni Kallio has also signed for The Cottagers.
Kallio, who joins from Swiss outfit BSC Young Boys, has been capped 15 times by his country and can operate at left-back and centre half.
