Maarten Stekelenburg hopes to revive career at Southampton

Maarten Stekelenburg hopes to revive his career during a loan spell at Southampton from Fulham.

Goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg has insisted that he wants to prove his ability during a loan spell at Southampton.

The 32-year-old Dutchman has moved to St Mary's on a season-long loan from Fulham, where his career halted and he was later shipped out to Monaco on a temporary basis.

"Monaco was not frustrating, no - it was my escape from Fulham," Stekelenburg told PA. "I know my level, I know what I can do, but you also need a chance to show it. I am just happy with this chance here and hopefully I can continue like this."

The shot-stopper made his Southampton debut in Thursday night's pre-season 3-0 win over Vitesse.
