Fulham Football Club is happy to confirm that an Independent Appeal Board has dismissed the FA’s appeal against the decision of the Regulatory Commission dated 6th April 2023, relating to Marco Silva and Aleksandar Mitrović.
As a result, Marco will be back on the touchline for tomorrow’s match against Leeds United and Aleksandar will be eligible for selection from our match against Southampton on the 13th May 2023.
The Club is surprised that the FA decided to bring these appeals, however we are pleased that the Appeal Board has now dismissed them in their entirety. The Appeal Board’s full written reasons will be published on the FA website in due course. In the meantime, we look forward to welcoming Marco and Aleksandar back where they belong.
