Fulham are in advanced talks to appoint Alvaro Arbeloa as a replacement for outgoing manager Marco Silva in what seems like a certain appointment for the Cottagers.
Silva, who helped Fulham thrive in the Premier League, departed Craven Cottage after five years in charge to take over at Benfica.
The West London side now enter the season not only without Silva but also star player Harry Wilson in what will be a very tough campaign.
Agbonlahor believes that Fulham could drop down next season, in what may be a harsh prediction.
"He was brought in wasn’t he, to try and win the league, to try and win the Champions League, to take over from (Xabi) Alonso and he didn’t do any better than Alonso.
"Marco Silva did a fantastic job there and still he couldn’t get Fulham into the top eight to go and play European football.
"I’m going to give Arbeloa a one out of five and I wouldn’t be surprised if Fulham have a relegation battle next season.
"It’s a big statement, but I think Harry Wilson leaving, (Raul) Jimenez, I know he’s not a prolific goalscorer, has left to go to Wolves as well.
"New manager, how much extra did Marco Silva get out of those players? We saw his aggression on the sideline. Arbeloa is not like that, he’s a more chilled out character.
“So it is a big risk. Out of all the appointments, I’m saying Arbeloa is the biggest risk that Fulham are taking."
Arbeloa has just five months of senior managerial experience after taking over from Xabi Alonso at Real Madrid. It will be interesting to see how he fares in the Premier League.
