Former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Tom Huddlestone believes that Manchester United will keep hold of Ruben Amorim even if they lose the Europa League final. The Red Devils face Spurs in the final at San Mames on Wednesday, May 21.
Both teams have been in disastrous form in the Premier League this season. While Manchester United are 16th in the league table after 36 games, the north London side are a point behind in 17th.
Huddlestone recently suggested that Spurs would sack Ange Postecoglou regardless of the outcome of the Europa League final. The Englishman was subsequently asked if the same applied to Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford.
Speaking to talkSPORT, as cited by TBR Football, Huddlestone stated that the Portuguese head coach is likely to stay.
“Possibly, but I think they’re more likely to keep him, even if they lose. When you listen to him he speaks really well, he’s honest and up front to a fault. The culture around the place is what he’s trying to improve and he feels that will filter onto the pitch. Yeah, I think the Man United situation is slightly different and I imagine he will be there at the start of next year,” said Huddlestone.
Manchester United next face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Friday, May 16, in the Premier League.
Will Manchester United offload Marcus Rashford this summer?

Marcus Rashford
Marcus Rashford believes that Manchester United will sell him for £40m this summer, according to The BBC. The English forward left Old Trafford in January to move to Aston Villa on loan for the rest of the season.
The Birmingham-based club reportedly have a £40m buy option in the contract. However, the clause doesn't prevent other suitors from moving for the 27-year-old.
Rashford has done a decent job since moving to Villa Park, registering four goals and six assists from 17 games across competitions. He is now sidelined with a hamstring injury and isn't expected to play for Aston Villa again this season.
The Villans face the Red Devils in the final game of the Premier League season later this month, a match the Englishman is ineligible for. Rashford's future at Manchester United, however, may be sealed after dropping out of favour under Ruben Amorim.
The player was linked with a move to Barcelona in January, but the transfer failed to materialize. It is believed that the Englishman still dreams of moving to the Camp Nou.

Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer's Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
