Scott Parker and George Williams will be like new signings for Fulham after they return from injury.

The former England captain has been struggling with an ankle injury and has only just returned to full training.

Williams, on the other hand has been out of the side since March after suffering a cruciate ligament injury and returned to training last week.

Manager Kit Symons said: “He will be like a new signing just like Georgie Williams.

“When you get two very good players back into the squad, it can only enhance it and it gives everyone a lift as well.”

It remains to be seen whether the pair will be fit enough to play a part against Blackburn but Fulham will benefit from extra strength in depth.
