Alejandro Garnacho appeared to aim a dig at Ruben Amorim after Manchester United were beaten in the Europa League final.

On Wednesday night, an all-English Europa League final took place at the San Mames in Bilbao, Spain.

With a major trophy and a place in next season's Champions League at stake, United buckled under the pressure as Spurs produced a spirited display.

Brennan Johnson's goal in the 42nd minute proved to be the decider as Spurs came away 1-0 winners.

During the second half, Amorim tried to change things by putting on the likes of Garnacho, Joshua Zirkzee, Diogo Dalot and Kobbie Mainoo, but it was all too late.

After the match, a visibly disappointed Garnacho appeared to take aim at his manager.

As reported by the Daily Mail, Albiceleste Talk claimed that Garnacho said: "I played every round to help the team reach the final, and today I only got 20 minutes."

The 20-year-old then spoke about his future, he said: "I don't know. I will try to enjoy the summer and then see what happens."

During his post-match press conference, Amorim was quizzed on whether he should've started Garnacho over Mason Mount.

As per Fabrizio Romano, the Red Devils boss replied: "It's easy to say that now.

"Who missed the big opportunity in the first half in the semi-final? Garnacho. Football is like that."

When asked about his future, the Portuguese added: "I have nothing to show to the fans, so in this moment it is a little bit of faith (that is required).

"Let's see (on the future). Like I said before, I am always open."

Amorim continued: "If the board and fans feel that I am not the right guy, I will go in the next day without any conversation about compensation, but I will not quit. I am really confident on my job and as you see I will not change nothing in the way I do things."

United will now have to dust themselves off before their final Premier League match of the season, where they will take on Aston Villa at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.
