Ipswich Town has signed Serbian midfielder Sasa Lukic from Fulham on a contract running until 2030, the newly-promoted Premier League club said on Saturday.
The clubs did not disclose financial details of the transfer, although The Athletic reported that the deal was worth around 9 million Pounds ($12.14 million).
Lukic arrives with extensive top-flight experience. The 29-year-old has 62 caps for Serbia and made close to 100 Premier League appearances for Fulham.

Before moving to England, Lukic established himself at Torino in Serie A and also had a loan spell with Spanish side Levante.
“I have played at Portman Road before in the Premier League and the atmosphere was one of the best I have experienced. I can’t wait to play here as a home player,” Lukic said in a statement.
“I am a box-to-box player who gives my all every time I am on the pitch and I’m excited to meet everyone and get started,” he added.
Lukic becomes Ipswich’s eighth signing of the close-season transfer window as the club strengthens its squad ahead of its return straight back to the Premier League.
Ipswich will look to secure its top-flight status under new manager Gary O’Neil, who was appointed in June after the departure of Kieran McKenna, who had five seasons in charge.
