Amad Diallo must snub Leicester City and push for Sunderland if Man Utd exit is sanctioned: View

Manchester United winger must snub Leicester City interest for Sunderland if January move occurs.

HIGHLIGHTS

Thus, the 21-year-old is available for loan signings to Sunderland and Leicester City, two teams fighting for promotion in different ways.

 

Both clubs might encounter some challenges because, according to this report, European and Premier League teams are considering Diallo’s circumstances.

Amad Diallo must snub Leicester City and join Sunderland if Man United departure happens

Diallo is still recovering from his injury, so it’s unclear what Man United would like to do with him at this point. It’s also

uncertain when he might be available for matchday teams.

Additionally, the Red Devils would prefer for Diallo to succeed when given the

opportunity, which is why they keep him close to Old Trafford.

 

But if, for whatever reason, it doesn’t work out and Diallo is permitted to leave the team in January on loan, the 21-year-

old will have to give returning to

Sunderland more importance than playing for the Foxes.

 

The player was their last season and had a fantastic campaign, which is one of the apparent reasons for this.

 

Diallo made 37 appearances for Sunderland in the Championship last season, tallying 13 goals and dishing out

three assists. In other words, his projected goal ratio overall was 8.1,

while his predicted assist rate was 4.3 according to Fbref.com.

In every ninety minutes, Diallo was averaging a goal and an assist every 0.45 times. Going forward, the winger was a

terrifying sight, with 64 shots on goal for the season, 25 of which were on target

and, naturally, 13 of which ended in goals. According to Fbref.com, he made a

shot 2.23 times on average for every 90 minutes of play.

 

The Man United player had a tremendous season last year, and although Sunderland supporters would

be skeptical of their prospects of re-signing him because of his superiority

over the Championship or the departure of Tony Mowbray, the Stadium of Light

would be a better fit for Diallo than Leicester would be.

The Black Cats need more offensive alternatives, and the 21-year-old would fit right back into their starting lineup if

he returned to the team in January. His performances for the team were also too

strong to see him return and not start every game.

 

Although there is no reason why Diallo would not play for Leicester given that

Enzo Maresca has many of alternatives in the attacking third and there are now

players on the team who are not playing much, it could be argued that if Diallo

were to sign with the team, his guarantee of playing time would not be as good.

Man United would want to move him to a place where he can play every week, and as things stand, they most likely

envision him playing more at Sunderland than at Leicester.
