Fulham academy chief Symons delighted with talent now coming through

Fulham academy chief Kit Symons admits they're delighted with the talent now coming through the system.

The likes of Matthew Briggs are proving themselves first team quality.

Symons told fulhamfc.com: "We've got some good young boys pushing on now. We've got Joshua Passley, who's had a few injuries, but he's been up with the Reserves and he's only a first year scholar.

"Stephen Arthurworrey was playing in the Reserves last year as a school boy which is phenomenal. Cauley Woodrow is another first year who's been up with the Reserves so I've not seen a lot of him lately.

"Getting up to the Reserves is one step and it's great, but now we need them reach the First Team which is our ultimate goal. Kerim Frei's done that and Matthew Briggs is there and we want more of them moving up."
