Charlton sign Ricardo Fuller

As mentioned in the Leicester City match report, Charlton announced at half-time last night that they have signed former Stoke City striker Ricardo Fuller. He signed a one year contract, with the option of a further year.

Fuller was in fact on trial at Charlton in the 1999/00 season, and scored five goals in three games for the reserve side. However, a deal to sign the striker fell through, supposedly due to a back injury.

Hopefully, having played in the Premier League for the last four years, and having played and scored consistently in British football over the last twelve years, he will prove to be a solid acquisition for Powell's team.

Charlton's striking options:
Bradley Wright-Phillips
Yann Kermorgant
Ricardo Fuller
Danny Haynes
Michael Smith
Jordan Cook
Scott Wagstaff
