LOAN-star Stefano Okaka has vowed to secure an extension to his stay at Fulham.

The Roma striker has had limited opportunities to shine for the Whites since arriving from Serie A on a short-term deal in January, but came off the bench to score in the 2-1 victory against Wigan on Sunday.

He said: "At this stage I don’t know if there’s a possibility of extending my stay here, but I feel really good here and it certainly wouldn’t be a problem for me to stay.

"In fact, I’d like it very much, but we’ll just have to see how it goes.

“It’s really up to the manager in terms of team selection, but my ambition will just be to do my best between now and the end of the season and hopefully get more opportunities to show what I can do."

Okaka is determined to impress the Craven Cottage faithful and make a name for himself in English football.

“For me, it was a great opportunity to come here at 20 years of age and have the chance to open my mind to a different country and experience a different level of football," he added.

“It wasn’t a case of limited opportunities at Roma; I’ve already played for quite a while. This is just something that came up and I was interested in.

"It’s very different from Italy. There, it’s more tactical and here it’s more physical and of course I like that side of it. But I like both styles."
