Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag's attitude to talent, regardless of age, has already shown Amad that he can compete for a place in his starting XI next season.
After a slow start to his time at Sunderland, Amad appears to have well and truly turned a corner. The 20-year-old scored his fifth goal in seven league appearances during the Black Cats' 2-1 defeat to West Brom in the Championship on Monday night.
The United loanee both won and scored a penalty to give his side the lead in the 19th minute. Despite the Baggies scoring twice late on to claim all three points, Amad was a constant threat all evening and was unlucky not to add more to his tally after it appeared that he was brought down in the box once again in the second-half - yet the referee waved away the home side's appeals.
