Manchester United winger Amad Diallo has been dealt a frustrating injury setback at a crucial stage of the season. The 21-year-old took to Instagram to express his disappointment, confirming that he will be sidelined for an unspecified period.
Amad, who recently returned to full fitness after a lengthy recovery from a knee injury sustained in preseason, had been hoping to play a bigger role in Erik ten Hag’s squad. However, his latest setback means he will now have to watch from the sidelines as United push for a strong finish in the Premier League and other competitions.
“Extremely disappointed to be writing this message in such a crucial time of the season,” Amad posted. “Unfortunately, I will be out for some time with an injury. I will come back stronger than ever!! Time to support the boys from the outside. Still loads to play for.”
The young Ivorian’s absence comes at a time when United are dealing with several injury concerns. With key fixtures on the horizon, his creativity and attacking flair would have been valuable assets. Fans had been eager to see more of Amad in the first team after his impressive loan spell at Sunderland last season, where he played a pivotal role in their Championship campaign.
Despite the setback, Amad remains optimistic and determined to return stronger. United supporters flooded his post with messages of encouragement, wishing him a speedy recovery.
With crucial games ahead, Manchester United will have to rely on their squad depth to cope with his absence. The focus now shifts to the medical team, who will work closely with Amad to ensure he recovers fully and returns to action as soon as possible.
