Fulham manager, Marco Silva, has signed a new three-year deal to remain at Craven Cottage until 2026, three months after he was first offered fresh terms.
Silva’s existing deal was due to expire at the end of June. He led Fulham back to the Premier League from the Championship in his first season in charge, before guiding them to 10th, their highest league finish in 11 years, in May.
Speaking to the club website, Silva said: “I’m really pleased to sign a new contract as it was something we had been discussing for some time. It’s always a good sign when both parties are happy and want to continue working together.
“I feel that the business is not done yet, we’ve had two great seasons, and the goal is clearly there to sustain this club in the Premier League. This is key for the future of this club, and we are working hard to achieve it.
“It is important to feel the trust and have the support of our owners. My relationship with them, and with Fulham as a whole, has been really important in this decision and the success of the last two seasons.
“The commitment and ambition that these players have demonstrated since day one has been the key to what we have achieved, and that will always continue to be the case, along with the unconditional support of our fans, who are fundamental. Let’s continue together on this long journey.”
Silva has won 51, drawn 21 and lost 33 of his 105 games in charge of the west London club.
