Last week, the highly anticipated new Premier League season kicked off and Manchester United's Amad Diallo was given the opportunity to start in the team's first game. However, amidst the excitement and anticipation, Diallo shared some heartbreaking news with his fans.
The 22-year-old star took to social media to announce the passing of a dear relative who he referred to as "a mother" to him. Alongside a photo of the woman holding two young children, Diallo wrote a heartfelt tribute, "Rest in peace Mum, may Allah forgive you." It was clear that this loss had deeply affected him.
In a later post, Diallo clarified that the woman in the photo was not his biological mother, but someone who held a special place in his heart. She was his brother's mother and also played a maternal role in his life. It was evident that she was loved and will be deeply missed.
Despite the emotional news, Diallo had to put his feelings aside and focus on his football career. He had started in United's first game of the season and was expected to be part of the squad for their upcoming match against Brighton. There were high hopes for the Ivory Coast international, who had joined United from Atalanta in 2019.
Diallo had already made a name for himself during his loan spell with Sunderland in the Championship, and his return to Manchester last season was marked by a memorable last-minute winning goal against Liverpool in the FA Cup. It was clear that he had a bright future ahead of him and was a valuable asset to the team.
During United's pre-season preparations, Diallo had featured prominently under the guidance of coach Erik ten Hag. He had even started in the Community Shield match against Manchester City. Fans and analysts alike were excited to see what he would bring to the team in the upcoming season.
As Diallo mourned the loss of his loved one, he also had to shift his focus back to his football career. He had the support of his teammates, coaches, and fans, who all sent their condolences and expressed their understanding of the difficult situation. As the football world continues to watch and support him, Diallo will surely carry the memory of his "mother" with him on the field.
