Fabrizio Romano has provided a positive update on an injury suffered by Amad Diallo in February, that had been expected to keep him out for the rest of the season.
The winger has been a beacon of hope in trying times for Manchester United this season, registering six goals and seven assists in the Premier League.
Goals against Manchester City and Liverpool, and a hattrick against Southampton, have given fans a reason to be positive in a season in which cheerful moments have been hard to come by.
However, in February, Ruben Amorim confirmed the winger would be absent for a lengthy period after damaging ligaments in his ankle.
Speaking ahead of a match against Tottenham Hotspur, the Manchester United boss said: “Amad is out for sure until the end of the season.
“Amad was alone. He was doing a tackle.”
However, according to Fabrizio Romano, there could be hope for the winger’s involvement yet this season.
Speaking on X(formerly Twitter), he said: “Amad Diallo, progressing well in his recovery after injury and currently understood to be ahead of schedule.
“Manchester United staff cautious as they won’t take any risks but there’s a real chance for Amad to be back on pitch before the end of the season, around May.”
This latest update will excite Manchester United fans, who will hope there is a chance the Ivorian could play a part in a potential Europa League final.
After beating Real Sociedad over two legs, the Red Devils will now face French club Lyon in the competition’s quarter-final, with both games taking place in April.
Should Amorim’s side progress, they will play Rangers or Athletic Bilbao in the semi-final, with the final set for 21st May at San Mames Stadium in Bilbao, Spain.
