Fulham fear Marco Silva could LEAVE before start of season with boss set to change agent amid Saudi Arabia links
MARCO SILVA is in talks to switch representatives as the doubts over his future continue.
SunSport reported this month that the Fulham boss was in two minds over signing an extension at Craven Cottage this summer – with his deal expiring in June 2024.
Marco Silva’s future as Fulham manager is not as clear as the Cottagers would likeReuters
The Portuguese coach is happy in West London, but is still weighing up his options and will not be rushed into committing to a new long-term deal.
Silva, 45, has been linked with several big jobs over the past 12 months, including Tottenham and West Ham, and has also been offered a mega-money Saudi move.
And SunSport now understands that further questions are set to be asked of his intentions as he is considering leaving current agency ProEleven.
A possible destination could be super-agent Kia Joorabchian, who already looks after Fulham stars Willian and Cedric Soares.
It emerged last month that Silva has a £6million release clause in his Fulham package.
The former Everton and Watford chief has made it clear that he expects major improvements to the squad in order to push on from last season’s impressive top 10 finish.
There are also concerns over whether the Cottagers can keep hold of their best players, with £50m-rated midfielder Palhinha a major target for Europa Conference League champions West Ham.
On the plus side Fulham are being linked with Chelsea‘s Callum Hudson-Odoi.

The England winger, 22, is one of several players facing the Stamford Bridge exit door this summer.
The Cottagers, Nottingham Forest and AC Milan are all said to be keen on the ex-Bayer Leverkusen loanee.
Hudson-Odoi is rated at around £15m as he bids to revive his career.
