Rosenior signs new deal

Fulham defender Liam Rosenior has signed a new deal at Craven Cottage.

The young defender has impressed this season after making the breakthrough into the first team.

The new deal will keep the former Bristol City starlet at Fulham until the summer of 2007.

Fulham assistant-manager Steve Kean believes Rosenior has a bright future ahead of him.

"It's great news for the club and for Liam," Kean told the club's official website.

"He's done fanatically well in coming into the side and he's got a big future. He shows wonderful enthusiasm for the game and he's improving week by week.

"He's good going forward and, as we've all seen, is a very good one-on-one defender. He's one for the future."
