Amad Diallo Comp For Ivory Coast Leads To Fans Comparing Him As 'No 10 Playmaker Like Bruno Fernandes'

Manchester United sensation Amad Diallo left fans in awe with an impressive display for the Ivory Coast against Burkina Faso on Saturday.

The 18-year-old winger made three appearances for United in the Premier League last season after his £19m move from Atalanta.

And Diallo also played a part in the Red Devils' Europa League campaign as he scored in a 1-1 draw against AC Milan at Old Trafford in the first-leg round-of-16 tie.

The United starlet made his debut for the Ivory Coast in March as he came off the bench in his side's 3-0 win over Niger in their Africa Cup of Nations qualification match.

The former Atalanta winger's highlights at the Olympique Alassane Ouattara have been turned into a stunning compilation by one fan.

One fan said: "Oh, that was amazing... happy for Amad. Hopefully, he will have more chances next season."

Someone else wrote: "I hope to see more of him in the first team next season."

While a third posted: "Amad is amazing! His style is not like [Marcus] Rashford or [Jesse] Lingard. He looks more like No 10 playmaker like Bruno [Fernandes]."

And a fourth added: "Wow, what a free-kick. This kid really shows that he's ready [and] he should get many chances next season."

United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been impressed with Diallo since he arrived at Old Trafford and he rates him as a big prospect for the club.

Diallo admitted that he was "over the moon" to come to United and said the move was a "dream come true."

The Ivory Coast international told MUTV in January: "I'm over the moon to be here. I'm so excited to start here at Manchester United.

"It's a dream come true and I can't wait to start and play with the guys.

"I'm expecting a lot from my experience here and I'm looking forward to getting started."
