Silva says he is planning for next season – as doubts over his Fulham future remain(Video)

Marco Silva says he is planning for Fulham’s future despite uncertainty over his own.

Silva’s contract at Craven Cottage expires this summer and he has so far not agreed a new deal.

He is among the contenders to take over at Chelsea and reports in his native Portugal suggest he is wanted by Benfica.

Silva said on Friday that he had not held talks with Benfica or been made an offer by them.

And he insisted: “For the people inside the football club, for our fans, if they are really aware, for our board, the players; every single time, I put the club before me, like it should be.

“I’m not here to think about myself before (the club). I’m here to think about the football club and the future of the football club is going to be always more important, because no one is more important than Fulham in this aspect.”

Silva added: “We have many things to do in terms of squad preparation for the next season.

“I had meetings with the scouting department this week again – the targets, the things. All of pre-season is completely ready and there for us. Everything is prepared for the future of the club.”

Silva also confirmed that Alex Iwobi is in contention to return for Fulham against Wolves on Sunday.
