Marco Silva increasingly likely to be appointed in charge of Fulham’s Premier League rivals
Marco Silva has continued to be linked away from Fulham as the former Everton boss continues to impress at Craven Cottage.
As it stands, the Cottagers are in the hunt for European qualification, and progressed into the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday with a 3-1 win over Middlesbrough.
With Silva’s contract up in the summer, the manager has been linked to Man United, with the Red Devils on the hunt for a permanent manager.
Another potential destination is Tottenham, with Thomas Frank under constant scrutiny early into his reign at Spurs.

Marco Silva now 6/1 to become next Tottenham manager
Frank is under huge pressure at Tottenham as results continue to dwindle under his reign.
On Saturday, Spurs were knocked out of the FA Cup after being defeated 2-1 by Aston Villa.
It was another awful display by the hosts, with Frank now the favourite to be sacked next in the Premier League.
Therefore, the North London club could soon be on the hunt for another manager, with Silva heavily linked.
Silva had been one of the favourites to take over at Tottenham last week, with one bookmaker pricing the odds at 8/1.
However, these odds have now been reduced to 6/1, with the Fulham manager looking increasingly likely to make the switch to Spurs.
Who is the current favourite to take over at Tottenham?
Currently, the favourite for the Tottenham job is current Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner.
The Austrian coach is priced at 4/1 to join Spurs as he continues to oversee a successful period at the Eagles despite their shock defeat in the FA Cup on the weekend.
Following this is Silva and Jurgen Klopp, who are both priced at 6/1.
While it may not be a shock to see Silva join Spurs, it would be if Klopp moved to Tottenham, with the former Liverpool boss seemingly unlikely to manage in England again unless it was a return to the Reds.
An Outsider for the job is Enzo Maresca, who has only recently left Chelsea, and is priced at 8/1 for the role.
