Ruben Amorim’s first post-match Sky Sports interview as Manchester United manager was gatecrashed by Ed Sheeran. The Portugease boss saw his new side draw 1-1 at Ipwsich, with Marcus Rashford’s early goal cancelled out by Omari’s Hutchison stunning strike.
And Amorim was in full flow explaining the changes his players had to adapt to at Portman Road when Sheeran rocked up and shook hands with pundit Jamie Redknapp.
Presenter Kelly Cates seemed surprised by the addition, but remained unflustered as she welcomed the music star.
“Ed Sheeran has come to join us, Ed, we are just chatting to who may not want to talk to an Ipswich fan,” she said, before a subtle reference to one of his songs. “But we’re making the point that he was almost ‘perfect’.”
Sheeran didn’t seem perturbed by his awkward entrance, reply with: “I love it. I love being back in the .” At that point, his friend Redknapp appeared to subtly usher him away.
“Tell you what, I’ll come and have a chat in a minute,” he said. As Sheeran walked away, Cates added “Thank you Ed, we’re really glad to see you.”
