Leeds looking to sign Amad Diallo, with his time at Man United unclear.

Manchester United youngster Amad Diallo has been in the news for potential moves this summer, with Leeds United in the hunt for the 20-year-old. Diallo joined United in 2020 from Atalanta for a hefty £37million, and after a successful loan spell at Sunderland last season, scoring 14 goals and adding four assists, Diallo will be looking to feature more prominently at Old Trafford this coming campaign.

However, Leeds are also keeping close tabs on Diallo, as the West Yorkshire side are in the market for a new left-winger following their relegation from the Premier League. Primarily a right-winger or attacking midfielder, Diallo is capable of playing across the forward line and could be a perfect fit for Marcelo Bielsa's side.

The Mirror have reported that Sunderland could also be interested in taking Diallo back on loan, with the Ivory Coast international claiming he'd be willing to return to the Stadium of Light to help them get promoted. Whether or not Diallo will end up at Leeds may depend on whether or not he impresses Erik ten Hag in pre-season. The reports adds that the Dutchman could be content to loan the youngster out again, but would rather he go abroad or to another Premier League club rather than spend another year in the second tier.

Meanwhile, Leeds' current winger Wilfried Gnonto is expected to leave this summer. The 19-year-old has attracted a lot of interest from Premier League sides, with Crystal Palace, Brighton, West Ham and Everton all said to be keeping tabs on the youngster who starred in Italy's 3-2 win over Switzerland on Sunday, scoring his country's second goal. Palace are especially keen on the winger, as they look to replace Wilfried Zaha who is likely to leave Selhurst Park at the expiry of his contract.

United's pre-season is set to begin with a fixture against Leeds on 12th July in Oslo, with their opening league game of 2023/24 campaign at home against Wolves on 14th August. Whether or not Diallo will be part of the team for both fixtures remains to be seen.
