Fulham Football Club

Fulham Football Club, commonly known as Fulham FC, is one of London’s oldest and most iconic professional football clubs. Based in Fulham, London, the club competes in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. Their historic home stadium, Craven Cottage, has been their base since 1896 and is famous for its unique architecture and riverside location along the Thames.

Founded in 1879, the club has a rich heritage within the English game. Historically, it was established by members of the Church of England, originally known as Fulham St Andrew's Church Sunday School FC. Over the decades, the club has transitioned from local church roots to a globally recognized sporting brand.

Today, the club is owned by Shahid Khan, a Pakistani-American billionaire businessman who also owns the Jacksonville Jaguars of the National Football League (NFL). Under Khan's ownership, which began in 2013, the club has seen significant investment in both the playing squad and stadium infrastructure, including the redevelopment of the Riverside Stand. The club operates as a major sporting entity within the UK, contributing to the local London economy and the global sports entertainment market.
