Media give update on Marco Silva and Benfica | OneFootball

he is preparing to meet this Wednesday, May 27, with Fulham’s officials in order to respond to the contract renewal offer presented by the English club. At a time when the press claims the coach is in Lisbon, the most likely scenario still places the Portuguese manager far from Benfica.

According to Record newspaper, in this Wednesday’s edition, May 27, the meeting between the two parties will take place today, with the same source stating that the coach will reject the renewal offer. With that, Marco Silva will travel to Portugal, where tomorrow, May 28, he will take part in a conference organized by Rádio Renascença.

The sports daily adds that there is no meeting scheduled between Benfica and Marco Silva, either for today or for the rest of the week. The 48-year-old coach is the Eagles’ desired target; however, he still remains far off, given the issues that still need to be resolved.

To begin with, Benfica must settle José Mourinho’s departure once and for all, with his return to Real Madrid currently on hold due to the elections taking place at the club. In addition, Record has learned that, in Marco Silva’s inner circle, the figures presented by the Eagles did not meet expectations.

Thus, according to what the sports daily found, if Benfica’s SAD does not present a more attractive offer, it runs the risk of seeing Marco Silva reject a move to Benfica. The next few days will be very important in understanding what scenario awaits the Club of Light next season.
