Fulham Football Club is on the lookout for a new manager following Marco Silva's exit to Benfica, which marks the end of his five-year tenure at the club. Silva's departure comes after a disappointing 11th place finish in the Premier League, despite initial hopes for European qualification. Reports indicate that Kieran McKenna, the successful Ipswich Town manager, is Fulham's top target, with an £8 million buyout clause due to his recent promotion. Meanwhile, Thomas Frank, who previously managed Brentford and Tottenham, is also being considered, although he is not the first choice.
