Marco Silva insists he is fully focused on Fulham amid links with Tottenham.

Tottenham's hopes this season, and Postecoglou's chances of keeping his job, appear to rest on the club winning the Europa League, and next month they face Norwegian outfit Bodo/Glimt over two legs for a place in the final.

As such, speculation has swirled over who Spurs chairman Daniel Levy would look to appoint as Postecoglou's successor, with Silva and Bournemouth counterpart Andoni Iraola the names most regularly mentioned.

Silva has again impressed at Fulham as he looks to guide the club into Europe, and insists his only focus is the current task at hand after losing three of their past four matches.

Speaking after Fulham lost 2-1 to Chelsea, Silva told A Bola: “My head is at Fulham. We don’t control everything that happens around us. It’s not part of me.

“With such important games week after week, our total focus is here and we control what we can, which is preparing the players for the next games.”

Silva could find himself top of any list of Spurs targets given Iraola is reportedly “inclined” to remain at Bournemouth into next season.
