Rúben Amorim was asked about his contract at Sporting and the possibility of having a dismissal clause with just cause.
Marco Silva had a clause that Sporting could terminate if it finished the first round 15 points off the lead; also have this clause [está a 12 pontos]? «With this renewal it was safeguarded, I say publicly: on the day that Sporting wants to dismiss me, I won’t take one euro more than the last day; even though I have a contract, when Sporting wants to release me, the next day they don’t need to pay me anything else. It’s the fear I have of being fired and being unemployed… it’s also the level of demand I want for myself. The requirement has always been ‘either first, or the rest is scarce’. I’m also lucky enough to be comfortable in life. I go when they want, it’s the best way to live this life. That’s how I want it, at least at Sporting, in the future I don’t know. Not even in Braga did I think about being fourth, let alone… I understand that being fourth here is difficult to manage, if Sporting understands, they can dismiss me even with a four-year contract.”
