Fulham have completed the loan signing of Nicky Shorey from Premier League rivals Aston Villa.
As exclusively revealed by skysports.comover the weekend, Fulham have moved to bring Shorey on loan until the end of the season.
Shorey has only recently returned to Villa after a successful loan spell at Nottingham Forest,but he has quickly left Villa Park for a switch to Craven Cottage.
Fulham targeted Shorey after losing regular left-back Paul Konchesky to injury earlier this month.
Shorey is expected to go straight into the Fulham squad for next weekend’s game at Bolton and is the club’s second signing of the transfer window following the arrival of Stefano Okaka from Roma. (Sky Sports)
Things have gone rather pear shaped for Nicky Shorey at Aston Villa and a move to Fulham could be just what the left back needs in order get his career back on track. Martin O’Neill purchase the impressive former Reading man when he was at his peak and was a regular in the England set-up but then for some reason the Villa boss decided that he didn’t actually rate the full back very highly after all and then began a season and a half of stops and starts which led the 29 year old to make a loan move to Nottingham Forest which went very well indeed.
Roy Hodgson has done well to bring in such a talented defender to replace Paul Konchesky and should Shorey do well he could well find the loan deal turning into a permanent one and who knows perhaps if he really shines at Craven Cottage maybe he could be a dark horse for a last minute inclusion to England’s World Cup squad? Stranger things have happened.
