- I have had two fantastic years in Copenhagen, with Champions League and UEFA Cup football, but it is no secret that I have for a long time wanted to have a chance to play in the English Premier League, and now I look forward to a new challenge at Fulham. I would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone in the club, it has always been a thrill for me to play in PARKEN and I will miss Copenhagenm, says Breder Hangeland.
