This transfer announcement was made by the Premier League team on Tuesday. Castagne, aged 27, will be donning Fulham's jersey under a four-year contract, accompanied by an option for extending his stay for another 12 months if desired.


Hailing as a right-back with considerable prowess, Castagne has earned recognition on the international stage as well, amassing 33 caps for the Belgian national team. His switch from Leicester City, where he established himself, to Fulham has been marked by a reported transfer fee of approximately 15 million pounds (equivalent to around $18.90 million).

Timothy Castagne embarked on his football journey with Genk, a prominent team in the Belgian Pro League. Subsequently, he made a pivotal move to Italy's Serie A, signing with Atalanta in 2017. His skills and dedication eventually led him to the English Premier League, as he joined Leicester City in 2020. Notably, Castagne contributed to Leicester's victory in the FA Cup during the 2021 season, showcasing his impact on the field.


Expressing his sentiments about the move, Castagne conveyed, "It's been a long transfer window, but finally I'm here, and I'm happy to be here." This transition signifies a significant milestone in his career, and he is eagerly anticipating the journey ahead. Castagne also had an opportunity to converse with the club's manager, Marco Silva, and he's raring to commence training and participate in matches.


In terms of immediate fixtures, Fulham's calendar includes a League Cup second-round encounter against Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday. Following this cup clash, they are scheduled to take on Manchester City in a league fixture on Saturday. This quick succession of matches underlines the action-packed schedule awaiting Castagne and his new team.
