Ryan Sessegnon has found adapting to life as a senior football player easier thanks to his Fulham team-mates, according to Slavisa Jokanovic.

At just 16, the left sided player has lit up the Championship and has been linked with the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham in recent weeks.

GetWestLondon, though, understands that Sessegnon will sign a professional contract at Fulham when he turns 17 and Jokanovic believes the likes of Scott Malone and Scott Parker have been integral to his development.

The Whites boss said: “He's got good team-mates. Ryan is a man who wants to learn and is capable of a lot of things.

“Around him, there are people who want to help him and these people, from another side are very happy to support him as well.

“At the end, he's a player who is in a learning process and adapting himself at this level. The experienced players like Scott Malone or Scott Parker are able to adapt and help him.”
