Ghanaian holding midfielder Derek Boateng was a long-term Fulham target, who eventually signed for the Cottagers on a free transfer in May 2013. He made his debut in the 1-0 win at Sunderland on the opening day of the 2013/2014 season, but made only five first-team appearances before being released in July 2014 following Fulham’s relegation from the Premier League.
