Reports in the media yesterday suggested that Ryan Fredericks was on the verge of leaving Fulham.

According to The Daily Mail, Fredericks is closing in on a move to West Ham United despite Fulham winning promotion to the Premier League via the play-offs.

Although the Cottagers will be playing in the same division as West Ham next season, it is believed that Manuel Pellegrini's side will offer the 25-year-old more lucrative wages and a long contract.

Fredericks was one of the stars at Fulham this season, helping Slavisa Jokanovic's side win promotion and getting the personal accolade of being named in the EFL Championship Team of the Year.

But with his contract due to expire this summer, the former Tottenham Hotspur youngster has been the subject of interest from a number of Premier League clubs.

The Hammers have been long-term admirers of the former England youth international and could now swoop for the speedy right-back.

These rumours have inevitably drawn Fulham fans to social media and here are a selection of the tweets about Fredericks' likely departure.
