The 24-year-old Rodrigo Muniz recently renewed his contract with Fulham for five years, and coach Marco Silva said he was very happy that Rodrigo Muniz stayed at Fulham.

In the 2024/25 Premier League season, Rodrigo Muniz contributed 8 goals and 1 assist for Fulham. So far this season, Rodrigo Muniz has scored 1 goal and contributed 1 assist for Fulham.

Fulham manager Marco Silva said in an interview, "I am very happy. This is good news for Rodrigo Muniz, the club and the fans. These three aspects combined make me very happy because I know the relationship he has built with the fans. I think this is not easy to do."

"Rodrigo Muniz has had excellent statistics over the past two seasons. When I signed him, he was the second player I brought into the club. Now he has been here for five seasons and has signed a long-term contract. It looks like he will have a long journey here."

Marco Silva said: "As I said, his data in the last two seasons is completely different, which is of course a positive sign. In today's football, it is not easy to find the right type of striker. Everyone is looking for such a player. We know that there are a lot of topics and rumors surrounding him. Other clubs are also interested in him. I think at least two or three clubs have tried to make an offer for him.

"He's still a young striker, which is definitely a very positive thing. I'm happy to see that he's calmer and more at ease about the present and the future. It means a lot for the club and for our fans to have such a good striker."

In addition, Marco Silva also said, "I have always been optimistic, and Rodrygo can confirm this. I have also mentioned this in my communication with everyone, but of course I am not 100% sure. However, I always think that it is only a matter of time and we will eventually announce that he will continue to stay with us."

On the other hand, Fulham will travel to face Bournemouth away in the new round of the Premier League. Fulham is currently ranked 11th in the standings with 8 points.
