The 28-year-old has joined Fulham on an initial six-month contract, but hopes to extend his stag in West London.
Pogrebnyak told Russia’s Sports Daily: “I can’t complain, things have started very well.
“The move was very difficult. I had to think, first because I was relocating my family, and also because I was offered a contract only for six months. Now, of course, I have no regrets.
“I wanted to sign a long-term contract. The club wanted to see how I would adapt in the Premier League, because the German and English championships are very different. The management wanted to play safe.
“I think I can win something with Fulham. We have a chance to qualify for the Europa League, and in England there are many cups.”
