Marco Silva Reacts to Everton Paying £4m Compensation Fee to Watford

Everton manager Marco Silva has responded to the news that Everton have paid Watford the £4m compensation fee for allegedly tapping up the Portuguese tactician during his tenure at Vicarage Road by claiming it shows the club believes in him.

Silva has been under pressure of late, with five losses from his last six games, but the club were still happy to pay the fee in question, keen to not let it reach an inquiry which could've lead to a points deduction if they were found guilty.
