Etuhu signs for Rovers

LONDON (AFP) - Fulham midfielder Dickson Etuhu has signed for Blackburn Rovers for an undisclosed fee, his new club confirmed on Friday.

The 30-year-old Nigerian has agreed a four-year deal with the Championship club, joining former Fulham team-mate Danny Murphy at Ewood Park.

Etuhu becomes Rovers boss Steve Kean's seventh signing of the summer as they prepare for life in the second tier following relegation from the Premier League.

"Dickson is a player I have admired for a long time and he will be a fantastic addition to the squad," Kean told the club's official website, www.rovers.co.uk.

"He is a powerhouse in midfield who has played at the highest level with Fulham and we feel confident he will complement our other midfield options."

The former Norwich and Manchester City man will join his new team-mates in Holland this weekend.
