Fulham midfielder Stefan Johansen says his loan move to West Brom has rescued his career.

The switch has seen him earn a recall to the Norway squad this week.

Johansen told VG: "I was hoping for a better season in the Premier League. When you go for a long period without sufficient playing time, it was enough. My job is to play football.

"I needed playing time and I got that with West Bromwich. You feel completely different with a couple of matches in your legs.

"There is much more continuity."
