Fulham have named Kit Symons as new U21 coach.

Symons has been instrumental in the recent success of the U18 squad and has now agreed to continue this good work with the newly formed team, which replaces the Reserves under the new structure for football below first team level.

He told fulhamfc.com: "I am thrilled to be appointed U21s Coach which is a very exciting opportunity for me. Hopefully I will be able to continue the successes with the U18s and be able to work closely with some of the same boys as they progress through the ranks to the ultimate goal of First Team players for the football club. It continues to be a really exciting time at Fulham, and being part of that, after so many years of association, is a great feeling."
