Sky Sports have shared a new name in the frame to replace Antonio Conte as Tottenham shortlist Fulham boss Marco Silva.
The Lowdown: Conte exit looms?
The Italian looks set to leave at the end of this Premier League season with reports suggesting Spurs are not eager to negotiate an extension.
They do have the option to prolong his stay by an additional 12 months, but according to recent claims, there is currently zero appetite for that either.
Many managerial candidates have been mentioned in the last week, including former fan favourite Mauricio Pochettino and other big names like Luis Enrique.
The Latest: Spurs eye Silva...
As per Sky Sports (via Football Daily), 'it's understood' that Whites boss Silva is on their list of managerial candidates with the former Hull City head coach now 'in the equation' to succeed Conte.
This comes amid mounting pressure to re-appoint Pochettino, and while the north Londoners will consider their ex-boss, there are also other targets on the agenda.

The Verdict: Magic Marco?
Called 'magic' by members of the media for his work at Craven Cottage, it's quite safe to suggest that Silva could be a silent contender for manager of the season.
Fulham are currently contending for Europe after earning promotion back to the top flight last campaign, putting past failed Premier League seasons behind them.
They've won an impressive 11 games this season whilst boasting a better defensive record than the likes of Man United and, of course, Spurs.
Losing just once in their last five, Fulham are in brilliant form, leaving little surprise Silva has turned heads in north London.
As well as this, beyond his work in west London, Silva also has experience winning silverware - having clinched a Greek Super League title with Olympiacos in 2016.
