Super manager would quit his club in order to join Tottenham | OneFootball

Fulham manager Marco Silva has been tipped to quit his current job and take over at Tottenham if they make an approach for him.

Silva has done hugely impressive work at Craven Cottage and looks like he could be a strong candidate for bigger clubs in the near future.

Tottenham would certainly do well to consider Ange Postecoglou’s position at the moment, with the Australian tactician leading the north London side through some absolutely dire form.

Spurs are currently 14th in the Premier League table, and have just one win in their last eight league games, losing six of those.

By contrast, Silva has Fulham up in 10th place and playing some fine football.

Journalist James Olley has discussed Silva’s future at Fulham amid links with Tottenham.

It seems clear Olley could see the Portuguese tactician jumping at the chance to take a bigger job if the offer came in.

“I think Marco Silva is another interesting option,” Olley said.

“I think that he would leave Fulham. I think he was quite keen to go to Chelsea, had they made a concerted effort to appoint him in the past.

“So I think he’s ambitious Silva. I think, obviously Fulham, I’m sure, would fight tooth and nail to keep him, but I can see a scenario where Marco Silva certainly courts some interest if there’s a possibility of that.”

Tottenham started well under Postecoglou when he took over last season, but it now seems increasingly difficult to see him turning things around.
