Amad's spell on loan at Sunderland is arguably the best move he could have made to keep his Manchester United career alive.
Following a torrid time at Rangers, the Ivorian's role at Old Trafford was diminishing quickly. But after a shaky start at the Stadium of Light, Amad hit his stride and scored 14 goals in all competitions.
This form boosted his stock with Erik ten Hag and MEN Sport understands the boss will be observing him during the pre-season tour in the US before making a decision on next steps. For a career which looked to be heading downhill, Amad now has the chance to stake a United claim.
