Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim says he will not be distracted by the UEFA Europa League draw against Real Sociedad and is fully focused on Everton in the Premier League on Saturday.
The Red Devils were drawn against the Spaniards in the last 16 in Europe on Friday. The competition represents United’s best chance of reaching next season’s Champions League, which also had its draw for the next round made at the event in Nyon, Switzerland.
Amorim’s side are languishing in 15th spot in the English top flight – one point behind their hosts at Goodison Park in the early Premier League kickoff on Saturday.
“I just want to win against Everton,” Amorim told reporters at his pre-match news conference. “We are in a difficult situation in the Premier League, and we have a lot of issues to solve in every game.
“If I see our performances and focus on Real Sociedad or think about trophies in the moment, it is not the right way to do my job.”
Everton have won four of their last five games to pull clear of the relegation zone, which they and United are 13 and 12 points clear of respectively.
It makes the trip to the Toffees all the more awkward for Amorim’s side, who have lost three of their last four in the Premier League, including their last match at Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
