The 31-year-old has penned a three-year deal on Filbert Way and arrives at the Club having most recently made more than 200 appearances for Fulham.  

Speaking to LCFC.com, he said: “Turning up here was a special moment, looking around and seeing the infrastructure. It’s got that wow factor. It feels nice. I’m delighted to be here and I can’t wait to get going. 

“I had a good chat with the Manager, he told me the vision of the Club. I spoke to him a few times and he was very clear in what he wanted and what he saw in me. He believes in me and it’s a perfect fit for me.”

Born in Bristol, De Cordova-Reid started his career with Bristol City, progressing through the club’s youth ranks to make his senior debut for the Robins on the final day of the 2010/11 campaign. 

After loan spells at Cheltenham Town, Oldham Athletic and Plymouth Argyle, he established himself at Ashton Gate, and was named in the PFA Championship Team of the Year in 2017/18 after netting 19 league goals. 

In June 2018, he signed for Premier League side Cardiff City, scoring five times in 15 starts, before a loan switch to Fulham followed in August 2019. 

De Cordova-Reid made his move to Craven Cottage permanent in January 2020 and has since represented the club on 209 occasions. 

Internationally, the player has won 33 caps for Jamaica, featuring for his country at the 2021 and 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup, along with this summer’s Copa América tournament. 

Having recently returned from international duty, Bobby will link up with his new team-mates in the coming weeks.
