Ben Parker is glad to be back playing football for Leeds United after a nightmare sixteen months out through injury.
Parker continued his comeback when he completed another ninety minutes in a behind closed doors friendly with Rochdale on Tuesday.
The defender has started just two games in the past sixteen months and needed to be substituted in both through injury.
Parker has now completed a number of games for the reserves and behind closed doors friendlies in the past few months and is feeling good.
Speaking on the official website, Parker said, “I`m feeling pretty good in myself. Over the past month I`ve felt as good as I have felt in a long while.”
Parker as been allowed to come back at a steady pace over the past few months with George McCartney enjoying a three month loan spell at Elland Road from Sunderland.
With McCartney due to go back to Sunderland at the turn of the year, Parker should be ready to fight for a first team place with Federico Bessone and the versatile Andy Hughes at left back.
