Silva Leaves Fulham for Benfica Job

Fulham has confirmed Marco Silva's departure as head coach, with the Portuguese manager reportedly close to taking over at Benfica.

Fulham FC has confirmed that head coach Marco Silva is leaving the Premier League club, with multiple reports suggesting he's nearing a deal to become the new manager at Benfica. The 48-year-old Portuguese manager, who has been with Fulham since 2021, would be taking charge of Norwegian duo Andreas Schjelderup and Fredrik Aursnes if he joins the Portuguese club.

Silva's departure means changes for Norwegian internationals Sander Berge and Oscar Bobb, who have been playing under him at Fulham. Prior to his Fulham stint, Silva managed several clubs including Sporting, Olympiacos, Hull, Watford, and Everton, having worked in English football since 2017. chickenroad-game.rodeo
