Scott Parker insists the signing of goalkeeper Alphonse Areola does not mark the end for Marek Rodak at Fulham.
Rodak was thrown into Parker’s side in October last season and did not look back as
he kept 15 clean sheets and established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the division.
The arrival of Areola from Paris Saint-Germain, however, raises a question mark over his future but Parker insists the No1 spot is up for grabs.
“Areola coming brings competition which is needed in one of the best leagues in the world,” said Parker. “What’s vital for us to be successful this year is competition.
“They’ll push each other. We’ve got two very good keepers and that’s exactly what I need.”
Fulham last night confirmed their fifth signing ahead of the new season by bringing in Kenny Tete joining from Lyon and they will not stop there, with Ola Aina set to join on loan from Torino.
