Marco Silva will leave Fulham when his contract expires this summer.
The Portuguese has been strongly linked with a move to Benfica as Jose Mourinho’s replacement at the Lisbon club.
Silva has been in charge at Craven Cottage for five years – winning the Championship in his first season in the 2021-22 campaign, before establishing Fulham as a Premier League club.
Fulham have finished 10th, 13th and then secured back-to-back 11th-placed finishes in Silva’s four top-flight seasons in west London.
After the club announced his impending departure, Silva said: “To our fans – I asked you, from day one, to always be with us. And that’s what you did these past five years. We achieved a lot together.
“My staff and I always felt your support. It will never be forgotten. Fulham will always be in my heart, and sooner or later I will be back at Craven Cottage.”
