Fulham boss Scott Parker signs new three-year contract

BY RICHARD CAWLEY

Scott Parker has signed a new three-year contract at Fulham.

The 39-year-old Whites boss has less than 12 months to run on his existing terms but was rewarded for steering them back to the Premier League.

“Signing a new deal provides stability and an opportunity to keep on developing the team,” said Parker.

“I’m delighted to have signed a new deal which shows mutual faith and commitment, on both my side and the club’s.”

Parker has boosted his squad with a double swoop on Southampton, snapping up Harrison Reed on a permanent basis and Mario Lemina on loan with an option to buy.
