Marco Silva Says No Contract Update as He Dismisses Chelsea Links at Fulham

His stance keeps the club’s run-in central to whether he stays beyond June.

Overview

  • Marco Silva, who spoke to reporters Friday, said there is no update on a Fulham contract that expires in June.
  • He pushed back on talk of the vacant Chelsea job and said any change would be announced by him and the club.
  • He called Alex Iwobi’s injury “really bad news” but expects him back before season’s end, and he said Kenny Tete has returned to training on the grass.
  • Fulham are 12th with a realistic shot at Europe, and Silva said the team needs more creativity after a goalless draw with Brentford.
  • EPL Index reports that Tony Khan has drawn up backup plans in case Silva leaves, with Thomas Frank cited as a possible option.
