Leeds United could be set to come up against reported transfer target Amad Diallo in their first pre-season friendly fixture. The Whites return to Thorp Arch to start pre-season training on Sunday and they won’t have long to wait until they take to the field for the first time.
United travel to Oslo to face Manchester United on Wednesday July 12, just 10 days after starting training, and given their internationals aren’t due to return until July 10, Leeds will be travelling to Scandinavia with a weakened side. The same can be said of the Red Devils, who will be without the likes of Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Luke Shaw, Casemiro and Christian Eriksen.
However, that could open the door for Diallo to be involved and he’ll be eager to impress as Man United mull over what to do with him. The winger spent last season on loan at Sunderland and according to reports, Leeds are keeping tabs on his situation if he is allowed to leave Old Trafford once more this summer.
