Hughes joins Fulham

The 27-year-old Hughes moves to Craven Cottage on a three-year deal after making 50 league appearances at Villa Park after joining from Newcastle in 2005. "I enjoyed my time at Aston Villa but when this opportunity presented itself I had no hesitation in coming to discuss the manager's ambitions for the club," said Hughes, who will be reunited with former international manager Lawrie Sanchez at Craven Cottage, and Davis could soon make it a threesome according to reports in the media.
