Fulham boss Marco Silva is delighted to have Aleksandar Mitrovic back for their clash with Southampton.

Mitrovic returns after serving an eight-match for clashing with match officials.

Silva said: "Mitrovic is back. It's good to have him back. He knew from the first day that it will be a different situation.

"It was a tough period for him but the dressing room supported him, and the fans as well. It will be good to have him back.

"His behaviour has been really good and he was always working with the team. We as a club will keep strong and supporting him."

On Carlos Vinicius, he added: "He's what any manager wants. Some important goals gave him the confidence he needs and it's nice to see him performing better and better in recent games. Everyone knows their roles and everyone is fighting for the team."
