Diallo suffered a devastating injury setback while featuring for Manchester United in a preseason friendly against Arsenal.

Following the injury, he has been on the sidelines for months, and has not played for the team this season.

Now back to the squad, Diallo is tipped to play a key role in Erik ten Hag's squad especially in the wide areas where the club is struggling with an underwhelming performance by the likes of Antony, Marcus Rashford, and others.

Amad Diallo's return from the sidelines is a big injury boost for United who have struggled so far this season with a piling list of injured players.

Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia, Casemiro, and Mason Mount are still stuck on the sidelines.

Meanwhile, Diallo is not expected to be readily available for United for the game against Bournemouth at the weekend.

The 21-year-old is expected to gradually pick up his fitness before returning to action for the club.

Diallo has won four caps with Ivorien national team. With the timely recovery, he may likely make the team's 2023 AFCON squad.

Since joining Manchester United from Atlanta in 2021, Diallo has struggled to break into Man United first team.

He was loaned to Championship side Sunderland last season where he starred with 14 goals in 43 appearances.

With his impact at the middle of the park for United during preseason, it is believed Erik ten Hag will hand him a chance to prove his abilities instead of another loan exit from the club.
