Fulham have signed Aleksandar Mitrovic on a permanent deal from Newcastle United, the Cottagers have announced.

The Serbia striker has returned to Craven Cottage on a five-year contract after the two Premier League clubs agreed an undisclosed fee.

Mitrovic joined Fulham on loan in January and was instrumental in the club's promotion back to the Premier League.

The 23-year-old scored 12 goals in 17 appearances as Fulham finished third in the Championship before winning May's play-off final against Aston Villa at Wembley.
