Fulham Striker Eddie Johnson Joins Aris FC On Loan

American signs for Greek side until the end of the season.

Fulham striker Eddie Johnson has signed for Greek side Aris FC on loan until the end of the season.

The 25-year-old is hoping to play first-team football to stake a claim for a spot in the USA World Cup squad.

Johnson has featured just four times this season since returning from an unsuccessful loan spell at Championship outfit Cardiff City.

The striker’s new club finished sixth in the Greek Super League last season and they are managed by former Valencia and Inter Milan boss Hector Cuper.
