Fulham boss Silva backs Bassey to excel at left-back

1 Min Read

Fulham manager, Marco Silva, has expressed confidence in Calvin Bassey’s ability to excel in his new left-back role.

The Whites could be missing Antonee Robinson and Ryan Sessegnon for their upcoming Premier League clash against Manchester United on Sunday.

Bassey impressed in the position during last week’s draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Bassey To The Rescue
Silva remains composed about the situation and is optimistic about the Nigerian defender’s performance.

“If not, Calvin did so, so, so well, a great, great performance at left-back, and I think we are more than covered in that position, because even [Jorge] Cuenca can play there,” Silva said on the club’s official website.

“Of course, they are both different, if you have Robinson or Sessegnon, then you have a more offensive dynamic and mobility on the left-hand side.”
