Khan purchased the club in July 2013 from its previous owner, Mohamed Al-Fayed, for an estimated £150–200 million. Since then, Khan has invested heavily in the club, both on and off the pitch. He has overseen the redevelopment of Craven Cottage, the club’s historic stadium, and has also made significant investment in the playing squad.
What Is Fulham FC Nickname?
Fulham FC actually has several nicknames, each with its own history and context. Here are the most common ones:
The Cottagers: This is their most well-known nickname, a reference to the Craven Cottage stadium, their home ground since 1896. The stadium takes its name from a real cottage that used to stand on the site.
The Whites: This nickname simply refers to their traditional kit colors, which are white shirts and socks with black shorts.
The Lilywhites: This is a variation of “The Whites,” adding a touch of elegance and flair.
Gentleman Jim: This was a less common nickname used in reference to former owner Shahid Khan, known for his gentlemanly demeanor and commitment to fair play.
Whatever It Takes: This was a short-lived slogan adopted by Khan, reflecting his dedication to success for the club.
While “The Cottagers” is arguably the most widely recognized, any of these nicknames are appropriate to use, depending on the context and personal preference.
Who Are The Fulham Captain And Coach?
