Real Madrid CF: Former Fulham manager Marco Silva has been announced as Sport Lisboa e Benfica's new head coach, replacing Jose Mourinho, who is departing for Real Madrid.

Silva, 48, ended his five-year stint as Fulham boss a week ago when his contract at Craven Cottage expired.

Benfica, in a statement, said they had "reached an agreement with Marco Silva for the signing of an employment contract valid for two seasons, extendable until 2028/29."
