Before the Portuguese manager could respond, Fernandes jumped in with a witty remark.
“He is. Who told you he's not? He is," he said.
Playing along, Amorim responded with a light jab at Fernandes, joking that his captain might be aiming for a future in management.
“He wants my job. He’ll be a very, very good coach but he has to work on his mindset, he doesn’t know how to deal with people."
