Manchester United are reportedly preparing to offer Amad a new contract in the wake of his successful loan spell at Sunderland. The Ivory Coast international enjoyed a fine season on loan with the Wearsiders, playing a starring role as the Black Cats reached the Championship play-offs in their first season back in the second tier.
He made 42 appearances in all competitions and ended the campaign as Sunderland's top scorer with 14 goals, becoming a fan-favourite in the process, and he issued an emotional goodbye message to supporters in the aftermath of Tuesday night's play-off semi-final defeat at Luton Town. The 20-year-old has now returned to Old Trafford where boss Erik ten Hag has indicated that he will be involved in the Red Devils' pre-season plans so that he can see him at close quarters.
Journalist Fabrizio Romano says Manchester United are also keen to extend the contracts of Amad and Uruguayan youngster Facundo Pellistri as they are seen as having big futures with the club. “Amad Diallo's biggest dream is to get a chance in Man United's first team,” Romano said on his YouTube channel.
