Amad Diallo continues his impressive form for Manchester United Under-23s with a goal and three assists in the team's 6-4 win over Blackburn Rovers Under-23s.

Amad Diallo continued his impressive form for Manchester United Under-23s with a goal and three assists in the team's 6-4 win over Blackburn Rovers Under-23s on Friday evening.

The 18-year-old made his debut for the Under-23s side against Liverpool Under-23s at the end of January and scored twice in the 6-3 victory over the Merseyside club.

United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had hinted that the recent arrival could be involved in this weekend's Premier League game with Everton, but he instead featured in Premier League 2 on Friday.

Diallo, who agreed to join the Red Devils from Atalanta BC last summer but only officially moved to Old Trafford earlier this month, scored his side's sixth of the night in the 85th minute after providing three assists for Shola Shoretire.

The teenager has been training with the first team since his arrival, while he featured twice for Atalanta in the first half of the 2020-21 campaign, including once in the Champions League.

Diallo operated on the left for the Under-23s for the second match in succession but is widely seen as a right-sided attacker.
