discussions are progressing well with Alvaro Arbeloa

Fulham are closing in on a deal for Álvaro Arbeloa to take charge of the first team following the departure of Marco Silva. According to Matteo Morettodiscussions between the leaders of the London club and the representatives of the Spanish technician have made significant progress in recent days. Former coach of Real Madrid, Arbeloa appears to be the Cottagers’ priority to open a new sporting cycle in the Premier League. Although a few points still remain to be finalized, the discussions are taking place in a constructive climate and both parties are showing growing optimism regarding the outcome of the negotiations.

This operation is part of a real game of musical chairs between several leading European clubs. Marco Silva recently left Fulham to succeed José Mourinho on the Benfica bench, while the Portuguese technician is preparing to take over from Arbeloa at Real Madrid. This triangle of movements could thus close in the coming days if the final terms of the agreement are validated. On the Fulham side, confidence reigns and club officials hope to be able to quickly formalize the arrival of the Spaniard in order to prepare for the next season as quickly as possible.
