Manchester United’s Amad Diallo has offered an emotional apology to the club’s fans in a social media post.
The 22 year old has probably had the best year of his career as he has cemented himself as one of the club’s most important players.
For a long time it seemed the Ivorian’s future would be away from Old Trafford due to a strained relationship with Erik ten Hag.
Nonetheless, his sharp increase in playing time under interim Ruud van Nistelrooy and later Ruben Amorim has led to him being on the verge of signing a new deal to keep him at United for the next few years at least.
He has already played the most games he has ever done in a season for the Red Devils and has scored late winning strikes against both Liverpool and Manchester City in the year 2024.
Amad has already promised fans a better future by pledging he wants to make history with the club.
The winger took to X to apologise to fans for the incredibly poor performances they have been subjected to this season.
“A very difficult year, apologizing is not enough,” he said. “But you have supported us and continued to do so throughout all this time… thank you…”

Whilst Amad has had his best year by a distance at United, where he has scored five goals and provided seven assists in 27 matches, the team’s form has been appalling.
They find themselves 14th in the league table after losing four games on the spin in all competitions.
Things have got so bad that new manager Amorim has already had to state that there is a chance his team will be in a relegation battle in the second half of the season.
Amad will once again aim to cement his status as a fan favourite as United prepare to take on Liverpool on Sunday, hoping to win their first game at Anfield since 2016.
