(Reuters) - Manchester United's squad has been stretched to the breaking point by the demands placed on the club by an extended run in Europe's second-tier club competition, according to manager Jose Mourinho.

United, who are destined to finish outside the top four in the Premier League this season, have reached the final of the Europa League, where beating Ajax Amsterdam on May 24 will grant them qualification for next season's Champions League.
