MARCO SILVA’S head will not be turned by a megabucks offer to manage in Saudi Arabia.
The Fulham boss has one-year left on his current deal with a £6million release clause and has been approached by Al-Hilal.
The offer comes in the midst of a summer transfer window filled with speculation around moves to Saudi Arabia.

The Cottagers exceeded all expectations in their first season back in the top flight after being promoted from the Championship the season before.
