Leno delighted with new Fulham deal

Fulham have tied Bernd Leno down to a new deal to ensure he remains their no.1 keeper.

The German has signed a new contract with the Premier League club, who are enjoying a positive season so far.

Manager Marco Silva will be pleased to hold onto the experienced shot stopper, who has been at the club since joining from Arsenal in 2022.

Speaking to FFCtv, Leno said: “I found out about the offer from the Club during the last international break, and it didn't take much time because I think all parties were very comfortable with it.

“I said straightaway that I want to stay here even longer, so I'm very happy about that, and about the long-term plans of the Club.

Chairman Tony Khan added: “I'm very happy to announce that Bernd Leno has signed a contract extension tonight with Fulham that will keep him at the Club until 2027, with an option for a further year.

“Everyone at Fulham recognizes the valuable contributions that Bernd has made for us since his arrival. After two clean sheets in exceptional victories in our last two games, it's also great timing to announce this extension.

“Congratulations Bernd! Come on Fulham!"
