Fulham defender Stephen Arthurworrey has signed a new one-year contract with the Championship club.

The 19-year-old centre-back has been with the west London side since the age of 10 but is yet to make his senior debut for the Whites.

Arthurworrey spent the second half of last season on loan at Tranmere Rovers and made 17 appearances during his time on the Wirral.

He also featured 10 times for Fulham's under-21 side in 2013-14.

Meanwhile academy graduate Lyle Della Verde has signed a new one-year deal with the club, with the option of a further year.

The midfielder, also 19, scored two goals in 18 appearances for the under-21s last season.
