Matthew Fry has impressed West Ham United management this season.
The 18-year-old centre-half has thrived this season, wearing the captain's armband for the Academy side and more recently making the step into the reserve team.
Fry told whufc.com: "I am trying to learn as much as I can from bigger and better players and take what I can from them into my game.
"Playing in front of crowds and more experienced players is brilliant and I just want to get out there and keep doing my thing."
