Ed Sheeran has apologised to Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim for interrupting him during a live TV interview

Ed - who is a minority shareholder of Ipswich - wrote on Instagram: "Apologies if I offended Amorim yesterday, didn't realise he was actually being interviewed at the time, was popping to say hi and bye to Jamie. Obz feel a bit of a b****** but life goes on. Great game though, congrats to all involved x (sic)"

Ed bought his minority stake in the English soccer team earlier this year.

The pop star - who is a life-long fan of the team - has sponsored Ipswich since 2021, and he agreed a deal to acquire a 1.4 percent stake in the club.

He said in a statement at the time: "I am really excited to have bought a small percentage of my hometown football club.

"It's any football fan's dream to be an owner of the club they support, and I feel so grateful for this opportunity."

Ed also revealed that he was looking forward to seeing his beloved team back in the Premier League, after they achieved promotion to the top division.

He shared: "It's such a joy to be a fan of Ipswich Town. There are ups and downs but football is all about taking the highs and the lows.

"I'm not a voting shareholder or a board member, this is just me putting some money into the club I love and them returning the gesture, so please don't get onto me with signing suggestions or tactics to play!"
