That snake Mendes is up to his old tricks again, can we not just have a normal summer without any Marco Silva speculation.


"Marco Silva was proposed to Juventus by agent Jorge Mendes & Juventus are now evaluating the proposal.

There's nothing concrete at this stage but exploratory talks have taken place. According to @TuttoMercatoWeb
⚫⚪#FFC #PremierLeague"

Just seems that our summer gets disrupted every single time.

The title and description of this post don't align. Marco didn't propose to Juventus, it was the other way around.

Cleverly on Marco's part his representatives have been talking to Juve so that he can now look anyone in the eye and say "I swear to you I haven't been talking to Juve"
Offer him an extended contract and give him a two week deadline to sign it, we can't have him fcuking us about all summer playing one club off against another, no players are going to sign for us if they think the manager might be leaving.

I think it's fairly evident that Marco is open to other opportunities if a good one presents itself. He knows how to avoid the questions in interviews. The talksport interview where he said the decision has been made he's staying was encouraging - but genuinely could see his head turned by Juventus who qualified for Champions League at the last minute.

He's so ambitious and this would be a huge opportunity.

It appears from reliable journalists like DiMarzio and Sky Italia that his agent proposed him, so if true then it seems Silva would be open to it.

As OP says - can't we just have a normal summer for once. It's so frustrating having had this for a while, but I guess is just the cost of being a mid-table PL team.

It would be a dereliction of duty if Marco's agent didn't investigate any opportunities that may arise. He would then report back to Marco and things would go from there. It doesn't mean Marco is actively looking to leave. We are so quick to believe everything we read  or hear. 99% is Bulls**t.

Heard from an insider a while back the Silva aspired to be an "elite manager" at the level of Guardiola et al. So could never really see him cashing in for a one way ticket to Saudi, or even Man Utd in their current state. But this is one I could see genuinely interesting him.

Marco has said he is here next season, right?!

I think this is our last season with Marco, and he wants to see out the contract.

It has been reported that Marco's agent (Mendes) "proposed him to Juve".

Didn't he say he "expects" to be here, not quite the same as he "will" be here.

He is keeping his powder dry and his  options open, and at the same time being diplomatic about it.
You cannot blame him for considering any opportunity's that may arise.
He is clearly very ambitious, and  naturally like any ambitious manager wants to reach Cup Finals and win Trophies.
Which he may have decided will not happen whilst he is at Fulham. If that is the case he is not going to accept mid table mediocrity at Fulham for much longer.
So if he does depart, let us hope it is sorted way before the new season.  Otherwise we shall be chasing our tail into preseason friendlies. Which is no way to prepare for season 2025/26, at any level let alone the Premier League.

If they do settle on Silva I'd expect him to go, and would totally understand it. I've had them earmarked as his next move for a year or two now. Good chance to win trophies, with a higher budget etc

My question is who the club might have on their shortlist in case he does go...
The Intertoto might not exist anymore, but that doesn't matter. We'll still win it again.

He goes - he goes.... He stays - he stays.

No point in anxiety attacks and gnashing of teeth on here.  Que sera sera.

Why are these clubs never in for Ireola, Frank or Glasner? Always seems to frigging be Marco and end of the day very little between how their teams have performed. Frank has been performing at this level for longer so go and stuff Brentford up Juve!!

Finnans Right Peg

I wasn't worried about the Saudi or Spurs links but this one does worry me .If Juve decide he his the man for them ,then I think he goes but let's hope if he does ,he goes early so we can get things sorted

Drewry66

He wants to be in the prem but surely he doesn't turn a club like Juve down if they want him. End of the day if he goes there and succeeds that's his best chance of a top 4 prem job anyway. Let's hope they decide he's not a big enough name.

Put simply it's because their entourage don't make it known that their man is looking to move on,
Do you remember two or three summers ago at the height of the "Silva is going to Saudi" rumours, there were all those photos of Silva and Boa "On Holiday " in the middle East with their families,
He's going it's just a matter of when.

Because of the Everton stint, I've thought his best shot at a "top 6" job would be going abroad at a top club and proving himself there first. Juventus is certainly a great opportunity if that is where his ambition is.
