Marco Silva has confirmed that Rodrigo Muniz will be involved in Fulham ’s Premier League opener despite rumours of a move away from Craven Cottage. Muniz, who scored 11 Premier League goals last season, has attracted interest from Serie A side Atalanta, with reports claiming an offer worth £34million (€40m) had been lodged.

The 28-year-old underwent surgery on his right knee following the conclusion of 2024-25 and has not yet recovered match fitness.

Fulham playing risky game as quiet summer leaves Marco Silva frustrated - After a club-record Premier League points tally last season, a lack of transfer activity has resulted in concern on two fronts

Fulham boss Marco Silva has voiced frustration over the club’s summer transfer dealings, warning of gaps in the squad ahead of the new Premier League season despite a strong pre-season run.

Silva eased fitness concerns about Ryan Sesssegnon who was substituted during the final pre-season friendly: "It was just a precaution as he felt something. I think he took the right decision, he was involved in the morning session and let us see how he is going to react."

He reports in a tweet that Queiroz has spoken with Cottagers coach Marco Silva about the 33-year-old striker. Inter Milan striker Mehdi Taremi has been at the centre of a number of transfer rumours in recent weeks.

Fulham are confident there is no need for a big overhaul of Marco Silva's squad, with plenty of talent such as defender Anthonee Robinson, along with midfield players of the quality of Andreas Pereira and others. Harry Wilson can always be relied upon for an important contribution.

Fulham have had a quiet transfer window thus far, becoming the last Premier League club to make a first-team signing by bringing in goalkeeper Benjamin Lecomte from Montpellier last month, and the club's lack of activity has prompted Silva to demand at least four more signings before the end of the September 1 deadline.
