Fulham have signed winger Yohan Mollo from Zenit St Petersburg in a deal that could see him stay at Craven Cottage for up to two years.

The 28-year-old Frenchman played almost 50 times for Monaco having come through the youth system at Marseille.

Further spells at Caen and in Spain with Granada followed before he returned to France for a spell on loan with Nancy.

That deal was made permanent in August 2012, with Mollo then joining St Etienne in a temporary move before that turned into a permanent transfer.

A move to Russia followed when Krylya Sovetov also converted a loan spell into a permanent deal before Zenit snapped him up, with the former France U21 international scoring once in seven appearances for Roberto Mancini's side.

Fulham will now be hoping Mollo can help inspire a promotion push, with the player himself keen to get started.

"I am really happy and excited about the project," he told the club's official website.
