Bruno Fernandes interrupts reporter with telling comment about Ruben Amorim's future ahead of critical Europa League final

Manchester United skipper Bruno Fernandes interrupted a journalist's question with a comment about Ruben Amorim's future ahead of the Europa League final.

Domestically, the Red Devils have endured a horrible season as they currently sit 16th in the Premier League table, having only collected 39 points in 37 matches.

However, they still have a chance of qualifying for the Champions League as they are in the Europa League final.

Standing in their way? Fellow Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur, who have also had a season to forget in the top flight.

On Tuesday evening, captain Fernandes joined Amorim and Harry Maguire as the trio faced questions from the media.

One reporter said: "Ange Postecoglou has just been in here answering questions about whether he might still be in his job whatever the result tomorrow.

"Are you surprised, grateful that you don’t seem to be under the same kind of pressure despite the fact that your team has a similar record?”

Before Amorim got the chance to reply, Fernandes interrupted as he joked: "He is. Who told you he's not? He is.”

After the trio laughed, Amorim said: "He wants my job. He’ll be a very, very good coach but he has to work on his mindset, he doesn’t know how to deal with people." You can watch the footage below.

On the back of the joke, Amorim gave a more serious answer.

The 40-year-old explained: "I don't know. In this kind of club, also Tottenham, it is strange that you have some coaches who lose games and get sacked.

"I think people see that sometimes I am thinking more about the club than myself. We have a lot of issues that in the context is really hard. I don't know how to explain how the fans like me in this moment. I try to prove myself to the fans and to the board."

On what winning the Europa League could mean for him, Amorim said: "A new future for me, I think, is not the case. People will look at our team in a different way, as winning a European title is really important. Nothing is going to change our season, but winning a European title can help us have that feeling to build a future."
