The 30-year-old Republic of Ireland star has penned a three-year deal at Craven Cottage and will join up with his new team-mates immediately.
Speaking on Fulham’s official website, the former Chelsea player said: “I am happy that my move to Fulham has been completed and look forward to joining in with the rest of the squad’s training programme immediately, in preparation for two important home matches this week.
“Fulham had a fantastic season last year and I know that having spoken to the manager in recent days that the Club’s ambitions remain high and I am looking forward to the challenges ahead.”
Fulham boss Roy Hodgson added: “I am delighted to add a player of Damien Duff’s calibre to our squad, and welcome the further midfield options he provides us with.
