Amad Diallo given green light to join Man Utd in January as Solskjaer hints at plan

“We felt Facundo would benefit,” Solskjaer said.

“He started training with the first-team – he did well but we couldn’t give him game-time so we thought we’d give him a run of games in the [Under] 23s and he’s benefited from that.

“His confidence has been given a boost. He’s shown in all the games that he can impact the game.

“With Amad, hopefully we can get him in and we’ll see how the squad looks and how he looks and how he settles as soon as possible.
