The Premier League club is currently weighing their options while Sunderland and Leicester City are expressing sustained interest in signing Amad Diallo, as reported by HITC.
Manchester United is maneuvering through their own challenges this month following a sluggish start to the Premier League campaign. Diallo, aged 21, has been grappling with injuries for a significant portion of this season, having sustained an injury during the summer that kept him sidelined from senior action until the recent past.
Diallo made his maiden senior appearance of the season last weekend against Nottingham Forest. The dynamic winger made a strong impression during his cameo, yet uncertainties persist regarding his future at Old Trafford.
Championship contenders Sunderland and Leicester City have both demonstrated fervent interest in recruiting the Ivorian international. Reports indicate that both clubs remain eager to secure Diallo’s services, while Manchester United is still deliberating over the best course of action for the player this month.
Diallo’s previous loan spell at Sunderland last season saw him amass 39 Championship appearances, with an impressive tally of 14 goals and 3 assists in the second tier. His affinity for the Sunderland supporters was evident, leading to rumors linking him with a return to Wearside this summer.
Nevertheless, high-flying Leicester City currently pose a significant threat, with Enzo Maresca’s side comfortably positioned within the automatic promotion spots at present.
The destination for Diallo in the ongoing transfer window remains uncertain, but if Manchester United allows his departure, numerous clubs will undoubtedly be vying to secure him on a loan deal.
Sunderland’s upcoming fixture sees them facing Newcastle United in the FA Cup’s Wear-Tyne derby this Saturday, while Leicester City is set to travel to Millwall in pursuit of advancing to the fourth round.
