"I think it is easy to understand [his importance], not just because of the numbers but the way he plays, the importance that he has during his five years here,” the former Sporting CP coach said.
Amorim continued: "He is a top player, we need top players. He is a leader, he’s the captain, so he’s really important. It’s normal that a lot of clubs want a player like Bruno, like [Alejandro] Garnacho, like others."
The ex-Portugal international said the club was desperate to keep the midfielder who has scored 19 goals and added 18 assists in all competitions this season.
