Fulham are ready to extend Kenny Tete's contract to ensure he still has value in the transfer market.
The defender is one who Fulham would love to keep, but are aware that he may want to move on for regular football.
However, the 28-year-old's deal can be extended by one year by the club, per The Standard.
The Cottagers are likely to take up that option to ensure Tete cannot sign a pre-contract with a foreign team in January.
Tete lost his starting berth to summer signing Timothy Castagne and wants to play more often.
Fulham are willing to sell at a certain price, but do not want to lose him on the cheap.
