And i don't want him to leave us.
So............. if Ryan's time with his boyhood team is in the balance, where do you think he should be for to his best future?
Straightforward question really and i i reckon the choices are to stay with us, or go to a top Premier League team, or a European giant.
I can't help but believe that the European clubs are better at player development than us (uk). If that's the case, should Ryan consider following the coaching dream or the EPL spotlight (deferred for 5 years)? Perhaps he should just grow with the mighty FFC?
Barcelona
Accrington Stanley - Bless you for mentioning them, top notch stuff.
Think he should do another season at Fulham even if we don't get promotion this year as regular game time is what he needs at his age
If we do not go up we will need some rebuilding and funds will be low so ideally Barcelona for 70 mill Euro and a year loan back not sure I can bear the thought of Sess turning out for say a Tottenham it makes my stomach churn.
If he were to go to a "big" club his development will suffer. Sess is the type of player who thrives on playing week in week out. He will never get this at these clubs.They only want to buy him to stop other clubs from acquiring his potential.
He would probably get regular game time with a bottom half Prem club but could they afford him & would Sess want to go to one of them?
Sessneeds to stay with us whatever division we are in next season. He still has so much to learn especially his defensive positioning.
PSG not on the list? They are supposedly very keen.
He should stick around for more-or-less guaranteed starting 11 action as opposed to going to a "bigger" club to warm their bench up. At least for another season.
His parents want him to stay apparently. According to leroy rosenior
For such a young man with a tight family, I think a foreign club is a step too far. However if you wanna be one of the best you need to be among them. Also the financial security a move would give him shouldn't be overlooked. There's a fair few sportsmen out there, who have had careers cut short by injury.
I'd hate to see him though.

I have heard this too. They are happy with him staying (and playing) Family is in no rush nor is Ryan. If he goes in the summer it'll be because the club choose to cash in at that point.
No matter how level headed he is he is 17 years old.
Would he really want to be in a foreign country, learning a new language and coping with the pressure on him without his family around him.
I think he would be better staying with us, obviously, I don't know what our wage structure is but there is only so much money a 17 year old with no wife and kids to support needs.
He could move on at 21 and still command mega money........the flip side is, if he doesn't cut it in the Prem,highly unlikely, his value will plummet.

Just wait for the play offs to finish, Millwall could prove attractive to him.
If we don't go up, he should go to a mid to lower mid prem team. Somewhere he will get more games than not but at a higher level.
LA Galaxy. He would blow their minds and soon would be praised as the best in the world of all time, etc. Don't think they have ever seen a a very good young player over there.
I honestly don't see him moving anywhere this summer, whatever happens, will be at Fulham one more season, at least.

Have you been playing The Journey on Fifa? You've described the exact story of the game haha
I seem to remember reading somewhere that Ryan speaks French as well as English because of his family background.
He is young, but that would certainly help him to settle on the Continent.

Are you possibly suggesting Derby .
Whatever happens, his best place for next season is with us.
Plenty of time to 'develop' with a top club
His only issue should be injury and loss of earnings, however his advisors should have
sorted out insurance for loss of earnings from a career earning injury to the tune of
???? Miliions, which Fulham should pay to keep him !!
If we don't go up they will have to sell him to compete next years as Fredericks, Cairney will be gone and Mitro and Targett will return to their respective clubs to be sold. The only solution is gain promotion. That is it, that is all.
If the real interest in Sess is only half what we are reading then the time is close when one of the top six will come in with an offer so good that neither Sess. nor Fulham will be able to say no.
Spurs I would think are favourites for Sess's signature.
Sell for £50M and loan back for 2 years that remain on his contract. Gives us money for Mitro and Targett with more still in the bank to strengthen.
