Kieran McKenna shows interest in Fulham manager position

Summary

Kieran McKenna has expressed interest in becoming the next Fulham manager as Marco Silva is expected to depart for SL Benfica this summer. Previously an assistant at Manchester United, McKenna has had success at Ipswich Town, leading them to promotions to the Premier League. Despite recent rumors linking him to other clubs, McKenna is reportedly Fulham's top target to replace Silva, whose future at the club is uncertain due to potential offers from abroad. Any move may face complications due to an £8 million buyout clause in McKenna's contract.
