Fulham Football Club completed the signing of Andrew Johnson from Everton on August 7, 2008. Johnson signed a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee, which sees him at the Club until the summer of 2012.

The 27-year-old striker joined Everton in May 2006 from Crystal Palace for £8.6m and made 73 appearances and scored 22 goals during his time at Goodison Park. He finished his first season at Everton as the Club's top scorer having started the campaign with six goals in the opening seven matches; including two goals in a 3-0 win over Merseyside rivals Liverpool.

Johnson started his career at Birmingham City in 1997 but rapidly came to the fore when he signed for Crystal Palace in July 2002, making 160 appearances for the Eagles, scoring 85 goals. The 32 goals he netted during 2003-04, the highest in the Championship Division that season, helped secure Crystal Palace's promotion to the Premier League.

He ended the 2004-05 season as the Premier League's top English goalscorer and made his England International debut in February 2005 against Holland, when he replaced Wayne Rooney as a second-half substitute.

AJ opened his account for Fulham against Wigan at Craven Cottage on October 29th 2008. The striker scored a brace and moved past the 100 league goals mark as Fulham collected all three points over the Latics. Johnson scored ten goals over the course of the 08/09 campaign before picking up a knee injury in Fulham's home match against Stoke Cityat the end of the April.
