Amorim: Players only asked me when they could rest

As Portuguese side Sporting CP, currently topping the Primeira Liga table, prepares for their 20th round rescheduled match, their coach Amorim addressed rumors linking him to Liverpool.

"Have the players asked me about my future? I haven't had any discussions with the players regarding this matter. There were rumors about an agreement between me and Liverpool, and I felt it necessary to address them, but I left that part to the press conference. I haven't felt any doubts from the players in this regard; they only asked us when they could rest," Amorim stated.

Sporting CP, under Amorim's leadership, currently holds the top spot in the Primeira Liga with a record of 24 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses. Despite having played one fewer match, they still maintain a 4-point lead over second-placed Benfica.
