Ryan Fredericks: 'I can achieve my ambitions with Fulham'

By Daniel Lewis, Senior Reporter | 27 May 2018

Ryan Fredericks, recently linked with Arsenal, believes that he can achieve his ambitions with Fulham after helping the Cottagers to Premier League promotion.

Out-of-contract Fulham full-back Ryan Fredericks has suggested that he wants to stay at the club following their promotion to the Premier League.

The 25-year-old, named in the Championship Team of the Year, is reportedly on the radar of a number of top-flight clubs after allowing his contract to run down at Craven Cottage.

Victory against Aston Villa in Saturday's playoff final appears to have tempted Fredericks into agreeing fresh terms, however, as he believes that he can achieve his ambitions at Craven Cottage.

"It's up to the people behind the scenes but I'm sure everyone will want to stay and play at the highest level with Fulham and see what we can achieve," he told reporters.

"Can this club allow me to fulfil my ambitions? Of course. You look at the players we're attracting, like Aleksandar Mitrovic, we've already got Premier League players in the Championship so I'm sure we're going to build again and have many years in the Premier League.

"We can achieve a lot. We're not just going to go there and be one-season wonder. We want to keep the club in the Premier League as long as possible. It's a Premier League team.

"We didn't want to come out here and have a good day at Wembley. We wanted to come out and show what we're about. That's what we did. We did ourselves proud."

Crystal Palace, Arsenal and West Ham United are among the sides that could still pounce for Fredericks.
