Fulham have fought off major Premier League competition to secure Matt O'Riley to a new deal.
The Championship side were desperate to thrash out a deal for the highly-rated 17-year-old midfielder as Arsenal and Manchester City circled.
O'Riley who has represented England at Under-16 and 18 level has penned a deal until at least 2020.
The teenager told Fulhamfc.com: “Obviously this is one of the best birthdays I've ever had.
"It's a great day for me and my family, I've been here since I was eight-years-old.
"This means a lot to me and I am just looking forward to kicking on now."
