He joined Fulham in July 2008 with a two-year contract that was extended to June 2011 in August 2009, to June 2012 in December 2010 and to June 2013 in January 2012.

Mark joined Chelsea in July 2013 with a one-year contract that was extended to June 2015 in July 2014.

He joined Leicester City in January 2015 with a contract to June 2016.
