Kevin Shakhtar Donetsk has been signed for a club-record sum of £34.6 million.
The Cottagers have a five-year contract with the Brazilian, who has the option to extend it by a further year.
“I’m happy to be playing for a huge club in the world,” Kevin said.
“I’m very happy for everything that’s happening in my life,” said the Fulham forward, “I hope to score a lot of goals this year” and do great work.”
Kevin is the second wide player to travel to Craven Cottage on deadline day, scoring 17 goals in all 57 games for the Ukrainian side.
Prior to the late afternoon transfer window collapse, Fulham made announcements regarding the loan signing of AC Milan’s Samuel Chukwueze and the signing of Chelsea forward Tyrique George for a fee of £22 million.
Chukwueze, 26, made eight goals in 70 games for the seven-time European champions when he first arrived in West London.
The 2023-born Nigerian international previously played 206 games for Villarreal, but injury prevented them from winning the Europa League penalty shootout against Manchester United in the 2021 final.
“I’m so happy to be here; it’s a fantastic club. Because I have people around me, Chukwueze said, “It feels like home.”

EXCLUSIVE: Ahead of Strictly Come Dancing 2025, it seems one Netflix star may have his sights set on that glitterball in the near future.
*Warning – This article contains spoilers for Love Is Blind UK season 2.*
Love Is Blind UK season 2 has now officially come to an end, with the stars sharing in last night’s reunion which couples have stayed together. In a shocking twist it was revealed that just one pair have stayed happily married.
While there was plenty of heartbreak during the episode, Netflix viewers couldn’t help but smile when the fan-favourite newlyweds Kieran and Megan confirmed things were still going strong.
In an exclusive interview with Reach Screen Time, Kieran and Megan spoke about the possibility of pursuing further opportunities in reality TV.

Asked if they would be up for doing Strictly, Kieran confirmed enthusiastically: “Strictly! Sign me up!”
“He would love that,” Megan agreed, as Kieran quipped: “Strictly Come Dancing. She’s not allowed!”
Megan is a professional dancer and dance instructor, which would pretty much put her out of the running for the BBC show.
However, she added: “Dancing On Ice for me! I’d love to learn how to skate. I would love that.”
Kieran then elaborated fondly: “I’ve said she’s not allowed to do Strictly because she’s far too good for Strictly, whereas me, you know, I’ve got some liquid hips.”
“He’s ready, he’s halfway there!” Megan added, as her husband chimed in: “There’s something to work with but there’s no training here guys. So I could do Strictly and you should do Dancing On Ice.”
While Dancing On Ice has been “rested” by ITV, Strictly Come Dancing is gearing up for another highly-anticipated series on BBC One this Autumn.
The 2025 lineup, which includes Love Island’s Dani Dyer, Doctor Who’s Alex Kingston and I’m A Celebrity’s Vicky Pattison, is complete for this year – but that doesn’t stop Kieran from signing up for 2026!

Elsewhere in the interview the pair offered an update on how married life has been going so far, with Megan admitting: “It’s been quite effortless, really.”
Kieran added: “It’s been plain sailing, honestly. I mean, I think we talked about everything we needed to talk about in those pods, so nothing was unexpected about what Meg’s work life was like or what my work life was like, and so we just fitted into each other’s lives very easily.”
Megan continued: “Yeah, we both live in London; now we live together. So that was pretty easy for us as well to get into. Our families really get on, our friends really get on.”
Kieran then joked: “It’s been pretty seamless annoyingly for everyone! It’s been very easy to be honest.”
Unfortunately, the other couples from Love Is Blind UK season 2 did not have the same experience, with Katisha leaving Javen before their wedding day and Bardha turning Jed down at the altar.
More shockingly still, married couples from the show Kal and Sarover and Billy and Ashleigh all revealed in the reunion episode that they had split just months after the cameras had stopped rolling.
Dates: August 24 through September 7 in Flushing Meadows, New York
Andrey Rublev, 15, and Felix Auger-Aliassime, 15, both won in straight sets to set up a US Open quarter-final match against Alex de Minaur, an Australian.
For the first time since 2021, the Canadian, 25, dominated the Russian 7-5, 6-3, 6-4, to reach the semi-finals at Flushing Meadows.
Given that Rublev had defeated Auger-Aliassime seven of their previous eight matches, he had been the favorite before the match.
Rublev, who won the US Open junior championship in 2016, outshot him, hitting 42 winners to the Russian 22 and losing his serve just once, though.
“I’ve played well against Andrey in the past, but I kept my cool and stayed composed all the way through the match,” said Auger-Aliassime.
“I’ve only been playing on Arthur Ashe for a few years, but it feels better than ever.”
I was on my way up when I did it for the first time at age 21. To return to the quarter-finals after a few setbacks, injuries, and struggles with confidence, it feels much better and more deserved.
“Every moment here is worth it,” I declare.
De Minaur’s last eight appearances included “No holding back.”
De Minaur only needed one hour and 33 minutes to reach the quarter-finals, despite the fact that the Australian eighth seed struggled to beat the world number 435.
Breaks early in the first set gave the impression that Louis Armstrong Stadium’s audience was going to enjoy a close game, but Riedi’s all-or-nothing aggressive game was his demise.
De Minaur won the match in 32 minutes after seven break points in the first set alone.
De Minaur won five straight games before Riedi experienced a brief resurgence before breaking from 0-40 down and setting out for his stall for the second set.
Riedi made 15 unforced errors in the second set, which gave him a slight advantage in the second set.
After two separate operations at the end of last year, Riedi performed admirably in the last 16 before his service game started to unravel as a leg issue got worse.
De Minaur, who has never been after the final eight of a major, said, “I’ve always believed that the first job is to get there and give myself the opportunity.”
For the first time in his career, Lorenzo Musetti defeated Jaume Munar 6-3, 6-1, 6-1, and scored a potential last-eight tie with fellow compatriot Jannik Sinner at Louis Armstrong Stadium later that day.
Italian Musetti broke early in the opening set, hitting 12 winners in place of Munar’s three.
Munar, who managed just five of the 29 points in the second set, managed to lose.
The Spaniard slowed down as he held off Musetti’s 10 straight wins, and after that, he should have broken but spurned three break points, Musetti’s defensive game still remained unmistakable.
The wresting-legend-turned-actor’s alias “dwayne Johnson” has been given a new nickname after his slimmed-down body was showcased at the premiere of his new movie.

After displaying his slimmed-down physique, Dwayne Johnson has earned a new nickname from his fans.
The wrestler-turned-actor, 54, is known across the world as The Rock, which was initially a moniker he acquired during his WWE days, but after showing off dramatic weight loss, some social media users were quick to point out that he is due a new name in light of his change in appearance.
One fan wrote, “Gonna have to start calling him Dwayne the Pebble Johnson,” while another, who shared the same joke, responded, “Gonna have to start calling him Dwayne the Pebble Johnson.”

The Moana star plays MMA fighter and UFC pioneer Mark Kerr inn the new biopic The Smashing Machine, and is thought to have lost around 60lbs in total. He is normally thought to weigh around 300lbs, meaning that his new weight currently sits somewhere around 240lbs. At the premiere of the film, The Rock posed alongside Kerr and opted for a slim grey suit.
At one point, The Rock cosied up to co-star Emily Blunt, who plays his love interest in the movie, and the Devil Wears Prada actress wowed with her 0long glittering number. Fans around the world were full of praise for his big change in looks, and some even questioned whether his usual frame was sustainable in the long run.
The Rock is close to 60, according to one fan. Physically speaking, maintaining that size was not [possibly] possible. The same thing happened to Dave Battista. They should be seen. For living healthier lifestyles, one person criticized “The Rock looks good slim down” and “he looks fine when he loses weight too quickly. He looks fine, just an older man.”

Nothing compares to watching big-chested wrestlers like Bautista and The Rock finally give up maintaining perfect bodies and choose slim, healthy ones, according to a fan. It’s not our goal to look like a bodybuilder; it’s real life.
One fan criticized him for referring to the figure he had when he was in the ring, saying, “Honestly, he looks good slimmer. People assume The Rock in WWE was much slimmer. Although I’m optimistic that he’s always healthy, it would be nice to see some weight loss.
The Hollywood star previously expressed gratitude for the opportunity to witness his transformation in front of the mirror, explaining to Vanity Fair, “I just sat in front of that mirror for three to four hours and watched it all change. There were roughly 13 or 14 different prosthetics. Thoughtfully subtle, but very powerful, in my opinion.
By the time I set, I was Mark Kerr, from the way he spoke to the way he approached life, and I felt it.

Fans of the movie star were shocked when production images first appeared last year when people posted pictures of him on set.
Writing on Twitter/X, one fan wrote: “Dwayne looks totally different.” Another shared: “That’s The Rock? Holy s**t looks unrecognizable”. A third added: “I actually had to zoom in to make sure that was him because wow… literally unrecognizable!” “Didn’t even recognize him!” said a fourth. Another posted: “He looks so different.”

Blunt played Kerr’s then-partner Dawn Staples in promotional shots after the film’s other images were released as promotional shots. In one image, Dwayne is completely shirtless and wearing only two red shorts in the corner of a boxing ring. Emily, who was glancing at her partner while wearing a low-cut white tank top, stood out from the ring to his side.
The movie depicts both Kerr’s rise to fame and his demise as a result of an opioid addiction. This is the film about Mark’s life, which also fuses fiction and the real world, despite the fact that an HBO documentary about his life was released in 2002.
