Both clubs have had a rough ride this Premier League term. With only one match left, Spurs are teetering on the brink in 17th place, just above the drop zone, while United are faring slightly better in 16th. Despite their domestic struggles, they stand on the cusp of claiming silverware and a spot in next season’s Champions League.
The job security of both managers has been under scrutiny due to their teams’ lacklustre league performances. Ruben Amorim appears to be on firmer ground than his Tottenham counterpart, yet he recognises the immense value of the upcoming trophy.
Amorim commented on the impact of the potential win, saying: “A new future for me I think is not the case, but it is going to help us to finish the season. People will look at our team in a different way because winning a European title is really important.”
Ruben Amorim could win silverware in his first season with Manchester United.
