Amad Diallo, 22, Man United's top scorer in the Premier League with six goals, was left out of Ruben Amorim's squad for the Tottenham Hotspur game. He had to take a photo to accurately assess the entire extent of the injury.
The extent of his injury is still unknown, with sources saying he is at risk of missing the rest of the season, but it is also possible that he will only need a few weeks to recover.
According to ESPN, Amad Diallo will most likely be out for a few weeks. This will have a big impact on Man United, as Diallo is their best player in recent times. His inability to play directly affects Man United's chances of qualifying for the European Cup next season. Currently, the Old Trafford team only has a chance to win the FA Cup or Europa League.
In a social media post, Amad said: "I was extremely disappointed to write this message at the decisive moment of the season. Unfortunately, I will be out for a while due to injury. I will return stronger than ever.
Amad has emerged as one of the few bright spots of the Man United season since Amorim gave him a regular start after being appointed as head coach in November 2024, replacing Erik ten Hag.
The former Atalanta youth player signed a five-year contract extension with Man United in January 2025, as a reward for his performance.
Amad Diallo's injury has increased concerns about Man United's effectiveness in attack. Coach Amorim has to rely heavily on the striker duo Rasmus Hojliund and Joshua Zirkzee, who have been in inconsistent form since the beginning of the season, to find a goal for Man United.
United have previously loaned Marcus Rashford and Antony to Aston Villa and Real Betis.
