Amad Diallo has urged Sunderland supporters to be 'respectful' and to change a chant they sing about him due to it containing a racial stereotype.
Manchester United winger Amad has joined Sunderland on loan for the Championship season in a bid to continue his development with regular first-team minutes after last season's switch to Rangers didn't go to plan. After a slow start on Wearside, the Ivorian has begun to hit a rich vein of form, scoring four goals and claiming an assist in his last six appearances and becoming a regular starter in the side.
His performances have ingratiated him with the Black Cats' supporters so much so they have begun to sing a chant in his honour. However, Amad has asked supporters to change the lyrics of the song due to their stereotypical content.
