Ivory Coast and Manchester United forward Amad Diallo will miss the rest of the season because of ankle ligament damage, according to Manchester United’s manager Ruben Amorim.
The 22-year-old player from Ivory Coast posted on Instagram on Saturday to confirm his injury.
“I’m extremely disappointed to write this message at such an important time in the season,” Diallo said.
“Unfortunately, I will be out for some time due to this injury. I will come back stronger than ever! Now it’s time to support the boys from the sidelines. There is still a lot to play for.”
After Sunday’s 1-0 loss to Tottenham, Amorim said, “Amad is definitely out for the rest of the season.
“Amad was alone when he got injured. He was making a tackle, and his foot got stuck in the grass. Some players felt unwell during training too, so it’s been a tough situation. Sometimes, everything seems to go wrong, but we need to face this challenge and focus on the next game. That’s all we can do.”
Diallo has been a standout player for United this season, scoring six goals in his last 14 games.
Extremely disappointed to be writing this message in such a crucial time of the season.
