Man United’s Amad Diallo hopeful of big role this season

Manchester United’s Amad Diallo is hopeful of getting a big role for the upcoming season from head coach Erik Ten Hag. The 22-year-old Ivorian could only play 12 matches last season for the Red Devils after suffering a knee injury during last season’s summer tour.

Diallo scored the winning goal in the FA Cup final against Manchester City in March and he will be looking to come up with an improved performance in the 2024-25 season.

The youngster also scored against the Rangers in the pre-season and he is determined to take forward his good form.

“We had a conversation, a positive conversation, and he said to me good things,” Amad told a news conference at UCLA on Tuesday.

“I believe in the manager. Last season I didn’t play a lot, but I think I will have good things this season.

“The manager, everyone thinks is a good guy. I speak with him and he gives me a lot of confidence.”

After his £33 million move from Atalanta in 2020, Amad has played in only 21 matches for United and he will look for more game time at the Old Trafford-based club. During this period, Amad also had loan stints at Sunderland and Rangers.

“I think everyone wants to play,” he added.

“That’s why in the training you need to put everything to fight and start in the XI. We have a good team, good players, so the final one is the manager who decides who is on the pitch and who is on the bench. You need to be ready and everyone is important in the team.”

“I’m very happy here,” he said.

“I think everyone is happy with me because I smile with everyone, good energy. Why not stay here all my life?”

Manchester United will take on Real Betis in a friendly.
