Stefan Charles Earl Parkes joined Fulham FC from Brentford FC as an Under-14s player before moving through the ranks. He’s a speedy, intelligent left-back who can play anywhere across the back line and is at ease on the ball.

The defender was out for much of the 2019/20 season due to injury, but he recovered for the following season and was an important member of Steve Wigley’s Under-18s team, making 24 games.

Later, he was named captain of the U18 squad and signed his first professional contract with the club on September 14, 2021, signing a new two-year deal. On 1 October 2022, he made his debut appearance in the first team as an unused substitute in a Premier League match against Newcastle United at Craven Cottage.

Parkes is a regular for both our Under-21s and is now a member of the First Team at Fulham.
