EXCLUSIVE: Marco Silva is set to be offered a new Fulham contract with club chiefs desperate to extend his stay beyond 2024 amid impressive Premier League return

Fulham plan to offer manager Marco Silva a new contract as they look to secure his long-term future following the club’s impressive Premier League return.

The Cottagers head into Thursday’s top-flight clash against neighbours Chelsea with the chance of climbing into sixth place in the table, a lofty achievement for a club who were playing Championship football last season.

As it stands, Fulham, who were among the favourites for relegation at the start of the season, are already the highest-placed club in west London ahead of Brentford and the Blues.
