Fulham Football Club has formally offered a new contract to their manager, Marco Silva, whose current agreement is set to expire at the conclusion of the ongoing season. The club's board is keen for the Portuguese coach to extend his tenure at Craven Cottage, which has spanned four years.

Silva, aged 48, has previously voiced dissatisfaction regarding the club's activity in the summer transfer window. On the eve of the Premier League season, he criticized the board for being "passive" in the market, noting that the club ultimately spent approximately £40 million to acquire five new players. This period of contention has coincided with a challenging start to the current campaign for the Cottagers, who are currently placed 15th in the league, just one point above the relegation zone.

Despite recent difficulties, Silva boasts a strong track record with Fulham. He successfully guided the team to promotion in 2022 and has since maintained their status in the top flight. His past performance has also attracted attention from other major clubs, with reports linking him to vacancies at Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur.
