Ruben Amorim (39) experienced his first controversy at Manchester United. And she has nothing to do with her team. Indeed, the Portuguese manager was interrupted by singer Ed Sheeran during his interview after the match against Ipswich Town. The latter had confided: “I don’t think he (Amorim) wants to talk to me.» An attitude which greatly annoyed Man U supporters. Ed Sheeran also apologized to the new coach of the Red Devils.
“My apologies, if I offended (Rúben) Amorim yesterday. I didn’t realize he was in an interview at the time. I just came to say hello and goodbye to Jamie (Redknapp). Obviously I feel a little stupid, but life goes on. It was a great match nonetheless, congratulations to everyone involved.” Yesterday, Ruben Amorim was asked about this. And his response was very clear: “in Portugal, it’s so different. He was just saying hello to one of the commentators and it was nothing. I was with Roy Keane. It was nothing, it doesn’t matter.” End of the controversy.
