FULHAM will reportedly begin contract talks with Ryan Sessegnon as they try to tie down the talented teen.
The whizkid, 18, has caught the eye of Manchester United and Tottenham among others after breaking into the Cottagers' first team.
And the insists he will be offered a big-money extension to help ward off interest.
Sessegnon has played in all nine of Fulham's league games this season - starting seven.
His goal in the 4-2 defeat at Cardiff made him the first player born after 2000 to net in the English top flight.
The Cottagers have 18 months until his current contract expires but can protect their prized asset with quick action.
Fulham have been impressed with Sessegnon's ability to adapt to life in the Premier League.
And the five-cap England Under-21s international could soon be handed a chance by Gareth Southgate if he keeps it up.
