Next Fulham Manager Odds

Kieran McKenna is the current favourite for this job, considering he is well thought of in managerial circles. With another promotion with Ipswich under his belt, it makes perfect sense.

Like Silva, he has instilled a playing style with the Tractor Boys and the club is very much built around him, just as Fulham have been with Silva in recent years.

Both coaches have utilised a similar style, so there would not be much of a squad overhaul needed. Considering McKenna's stock is only on the rise, too, there would be a chance for him to take the next step.

However, Ipswich are in a better place to attack the Premier League this time around. So, you'd have to question his motivation for leaving and whether he would push for the move.

After two successive jobs in London, Frank has settled in the capital and he could be a fantastic choice to replace Silva after a disappointing spell with Tottenham.

However, despite that run, his credentials have not really taken a hit. Their struggle after his departure proves that he was not really the issue in North London.

So, whilst not as high as it was during his time at Brentford, his stock remains in a good place.

At 4/1, he is not the most likely option. However, there would still be a good chance of his appointment. He remains a fantastic coach and Fulham would be making a smart move hiring him.

Questions could be asked, of course, but it would be a fantastic move for both parties, you'd feel. He certainly seems like one of the better names linked to the job.

They say you should never go back in football but it’s working out alright for Everton and David Moyes right now and there are a few reasons why Fulham might feel going back to Scott Parker is a good idea should Marco Silva leave.

For one thing, Parker, who played for the club between 2013 and 2017 before becoming manager for a 17-month spell, did a reasonable job when Head Coach.

He guided the club to Championship promotion before ultimately seeing them relegated the next season as they finished third bottom. He repeated his promotion track with Bournemouth and is well-positioned to do it again with Burnley.

Admittedly, Parker has come up short at Premier League level but a previously existing relationship with Fulham, which didn’t end bitterly, and a managerial journey that has also taken him overseas for extra growth means he could well be a wildcard consideration for the Cottagers.
