Cottagers Tie Down Quartet

Owner Shahid Khan has confirmed that Denis Odoi, Floyd Ayite, Neeskens Kebano and Stefan Johansen will stay at Fulham this summer.

The 68-year-old used his programme notes for the Cottagers final Premier League game against Newcastle on Sunday to reveal that the quartet have had options taken on their contracts which will see them form part of boss Scott Parker’s squad for the return to the Championship next season.

Johansen is currently on loan at West Bromwich Albion as they look to secure promotion to the Premier League via the Championship play-offs.

However, it seems his future will be at Craven Cottage, as Khan was delighted to tie him and his three team-mates down on the back of Tom Cairney penning a deal to keep him at the club until 2024 earlier this month.

He wrote: “Among Tom’s teammates who will return to the squad in 2019.20 are Denis Odoi, Floyd Ayite, Neeskens Kebano and Stefan Johansen, all of who have had their options picked up.

“All four have been faithful to Fulham and were instrumental in our promotion, giving us great confidence, ability and continuity as we prepare for the intensity of a 46-match season in the Championship. “Denis, Floyd, Neeskens and Stefan each earned their return ticket and we’ll be counting on them from the start. Welcome back gentleman.”
