Amad sets United game-time target
Manchester United youngster Amad hopes that he will play a part in Erik ten Hag's plans next season after outlining how he wishes to become a first-team regular at Old Trafford.
The 20-year-old has enjoyed a fruitful spell on loan at Sunderland this season, netting 11 times in 35 games having become a regular starter for Tony Mowbray. Amad scored twice in the 4-4 draw with Hull on Friday afternoon with the Black Cats outsiders to make the Championship play-offs.

Amad joined United in 2021 from Atalanta for an initial £19million that could rise to £37m. Two months after arriving in Manchester, the forward scored in 1-1 Europa League knockout game against AC Milan during one of nine first-team appearances.
Eriksen details Ten Hag conversation
Christian Eriksen has explained how a phone call from Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag helped to convince the midfielder to choose Old Trafford during the summer.
After signing a six-month contract at Brentford on transfer deadline day last January, the Denmark star was keen to keep his options open as the transfer window opened with the player still a free agent. Eriksen had excelled after returning to the Premier League in west London; creating more chances than all-but Kevin De Bruyne and Martin Odegaard since featuring for the first time in late February.
United soon came calling after the season was over as they eyed a bargain. Eriksen recalled how the switch happened ahead of returning from injury against Everton.
