Fulham Manager Marco Silva Provides Updates on Injuries, Team Performance, and Upcoming Wolves Match

Marco Silva, the manager of Fulham, addressed the media ahead of the club’s Premier League fixture on Saturday against Wolves, scheduled for a 15:00 GMT kick-off. The following are the main points from his press conference: Silva commenced the conference by providing an update on the squad’s fitness. He stated, “Sasa Lukic and Carlos Vinicius are available to be involved in the squad, or maybe in the 11. It’s nice to see both back. They need more time to be back in fitness.” He then confirmed an injury to Harrison Reed, explaining, “Yesterday he got a knee injury. After the exams, he’s going to need surgery there. It will probably take five or six weeks for him to ready again. It’s a meniscus injury.” Silva offered his evaluation of Fulham’s season to date, remarking, “We probably deserve even more points than we have. Overall, the way we have been able to rebuild from the players that we lost has been a good challenge for us. We’ve been performing well and players are settling in well at our club.” Regarding their upcoming opponents, he commented, “If you look through all of their results in the Premier League it’s only the first game that they didn’t score in. It’s only a matter of time for them to win games. They are quality and have a lot of individual quality in midfield and attack. We have to be at our best level.” Addressing Raul Jimenez, who is set to play against one of his former clubs, Silva stated, “We are really pleased with his momentum and the way we helped him get back to his best. We trusted him when no-one in the Premier League trusted him. We are the ones that believed in him and it’s paying off. We are very proud.”
