Amad Diallo raised eyebrows on Monday, March 12, when he wiped off all Manchester United-related posts on his social media handle.

The Ivorien left only three football posts on the page while all Man United images were gone. The three posts left were all images of his spell with Sunderland.

Footballers always tie social media activities to their careers to boost their profile and also sell their wares to the football community on social media platforms.

Amad Diallo wasn't an exception as he showed off his footballing activities with Manchester United and other clubs he has played for.

His decision to take down all Man United posts came amidst his struggle at the club. It is pertinent Amad Diallo's Old Trafford struggles did not begin with Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag.

Since he joined the club in 2021 from Atalanta, Diallo has struggled to nail down a regular spot with the team and has been on the peripheries since his move.

Amad Diallo plays as a midfielder. He is dynamic and versatile but is still down Erik ten Hag's pecking order in Man United midfield options.

Under the watch of the Dutch, he has been loaned twice. First to Rangers in Scotland in 2022 and to Sunderland in 2023.

Throughout his three-year stint with Manchester United, Diallo has made only 5 Premier League appearances for the club.

His recent move to delete United posts on his social media handle will do little to salvage the situation for the youngster.

Although he has defended his move, saying it doesn't have anything to do with his struggle at the club, it is more likely he must aggravated his already tense relationship with the club and could be set for the axe soon.
