'Extremely disappointed' Amad Diallo confirms injury blow amid fears Man Utd winger will miss rest of the season

The Daily Mail were first to report that the 22-year-old could miss the rest of the season after suffering an ankle injury in United training ahead of this weekend's trip to Tottenham. The club later confirmed he had sustained an issue at their Carrington base.

While the 22-year-old did not confirm his season is over, he said he faces "some time" on the sidelines, writing on Instagram: "Extremely disappointed to be writing this message in such a crucial time of the season.

"Unfortunately, I will be out for some time with an injury.

"I will come back stronger than ever!!

"Time to support the boys from the outside. Still loads to play for."

In a season of turmoil, Amad has been one of the few positives for United. With the Red Devils having nothing to play for in the Premier League, their attention will have turned to winning the FA Cup and Europa League. But that task became a whole lot harder without the Ivorian.

The former Sunderland loanee, who signed a new United contract until 2030 last month, has scored nine goals and bagged seven assists for the Red Devils in all competitions this season.

United will have to soldier on without Amad, who has helped contribute to 43% of their goals this season. After Sunday's trip to Spurs, the Red Devils will head to David Moyes' Everton.
