Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has said the team is not equipped to compete in next season’s Premier League and Champions League.
Amorim was speaking to Sky Sports following their 4-3 defeat to Brentford on Sunday.
It marked the Red Devils’ 16th league defeat of the season, their worst record in 35 years.
The result also mathematically confirms that United will finish this campaign in the bottom half of the table.
Amorim’s side head into the second leg of their UEFA Europa League semi-final against Athletic Club with a 3-0 aggregate advantage.
United will qualify for next season’s Champions League if they go on to win the Europa League.
But Amorim said: “We are not ready to play in the Premier League, be competitive, and to be in the Champions League.
“We know that, but we need to win, and we need to fight to win this competition, to give something to our fans, and to go to the Champions League.
“Then we will have time to prepare the team to cope with those two competitions.”
