Fulham Set to Offer Marco Silva New Contract Despite Rocky Start
Fulham owner Shahid Khan is currently in London for discussions with manager Marco Silva regarding a contract extension. The talks are scheduled this week with Silva’s representatives to potentially extend his deal, which expires this summer.
Despite speculation fueled by a disappointing series of results — five losses in six Premier League matches — Fulham remain just one point above the relegation zone. There are rumors about possible managerial changes, partly due to Silva’s hesitation to commit his future to the club.
Contract Renewal Proposal on the Table
Fulham’s leadership prefers to keep Silva, and a detailed new contract offer is reportedly ready if Silva decides to sign. However, a quick decision is unlikely, as Silva is known to carefully consider his options before committing to a project.
“Silva is an ambitious coach, has been in demand from other clubs, and is likely to want to hear detailed plans for how to take the club forward.”
Challenging Summer Transfer Window
The discussions follow a tough summer transfer window, during which Silva expressed his frustration with the market multiple times. This context adds to the complexity of his decision on the contract extension.
Summary
Despite a difficult start to the season and uncertainty around his future, Fulham aim to secure Marco Silva’s continued leadership through new contract talks, reflecting confidence in his long-term vision for the club.
