Clearly and even with some humor, the Portuguese coach rejected any kind of approach.

“No. There was no contact. I am a coach of Manchester United and I will continue until something changes. After that, of course, be it next month, tomorrow or in ten years, I will rest because I deserve it. But there was no contact, none, ”said the coach of red devils.

Amorim also took the opportunity to stress that the incarnate club already has an experienced coach to the helm, referring to José Mourinho: “Now there is Mourinho and he will have fun.”

Nuno Gomes, candidate for vice president for Noronha Lopes’ eagle football, recently said that the former Sporting coach was Benfica coach … “One day”. Benfica’s presidential candidate was at Etihad last weekend to watch Manchester’s derby between United and City.
