Parker signs new deal with West Ham

West Ham midfielder Scott Parker has signed a new deal with the club, keeping him at Upton Park until summer 2013.

"I am very happy, pleased and excited - especially after all the speculation in the transfer window - that I can now put that to rest and sign a long-term contract," Parker said.

"In the last few weeks, they way the club is going and the direction that the manager and the board want to go is something I want to follow.

"By signing my new contract, it says that I want to do this as well."
