FULHAM boss Marco Silva could not resist a brutal dig at Aleksandar Mitrovic after the striker sealed his move to Al-Hilal.<\/p>\n
The Serbian striker has linked up with Neymar, who has just agreed to join from Paris-Saint-Germain, in the Middle East after his \u00a343m move.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
The former Newcastle man scored 111 goals in 205 games for the Cottagers, including 14 in the Premier League last season.<\/p>\n
However, his status as a fan favourite began to waver last month as he allegedly refused to play for the club again after Al-Hilal had a bid rejected for him.<\/p>\n
Mitrovic did come off the bench in last week\u2019s 1-0 win at Everton but he missed yesterday\u2019s 4-1 home defeat to Brentford as he jetted out to complete his mega-money move.<\/p>\n
Al-Hilal confirmed his arrival this morning as the powerhouse posed in the colours of his new team.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, his old manager Silva confirmed: \u201cHe forced everything to leave the club, he wanted to leave the club.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you ask me if it is normal? No. If you ask me if football players should behave in this way? No. That is the easy answer.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mitrovic also remains a regular for Serbia and has 52 goals in 81 appearances.<\/p>\n
Fulham are ready to join the battle to sign PSG\u2019s Hugo Ekitike as a replacement for Mitrovic.<\/p>\n
