Fulham is actively pursuing Kieran McKenna as they search for a new head coach following Marco Silva's resignation. Silva stepped down on Tuesday after five successful years at the club, during which he led Fulham to promotion to the Premier League in 2022. With Silva now set to take over as head coach at Benfica, Fulham is looking to fill the managerial vacancy for the first time since their return to the top flight. McKenna, who recently guided Ipswich Town to a second-place finish in the Championship, has emerged as a strong candidate. His impressive performance has caught the attention of several clubs, including Fulham. The club views him as a potential successor to Silva as they embark on their search for a new manager. Previously, McKenna was considered for the Chelsea managerial position in 2024 and was also linked to a return to Manchester United. Most recently, he was in talks with Bournemouth before they appointed Marco Rose as their new head coach. Silva's tenure at Fulham saw the team consistently perform well, finishing no lower than 13th in their four Premier League seasons. His departure marks a significant transition for the club, and fans are eager to see who will take the reins next.
