Fulham's pre-season preparations have been given a further boost with the news that influential midfielder Lee Clark signed a four-year extensions to his contract.

Clark is determined to make his mark on his return to the Premiership with the West London side, who have just signed Jon Harley, van der Sar, Abdeslam Ouaddou and Steed Malbranque.

He has committed his future to Fulham until at least the end of the 2004-2005 season, with boss Jean Tigana intent on keeping the backbone of his First Division promotion side together while also adding new faces.

Clark, the 28-year-old former Sunderland and Newcastle midfielder, declared, "I'm delighted to have reached an agreement that secures my future at Fulham.

"We had fantastic success last season and I'm very pleased to be back in the Premiership again. I'm enjoying my football here and the manager has great ambitions for the team."

Clark, who signed for Fulham from Sunderland in July 1999 for £3million and has since made more than 100 appearances for the club, added: ``Extending my contract was a natural choice for me.''
