Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has lauded Amad Diallo on social media after the Red Devils’ 4-1 UEFA Europa League semi-final win against Athletic Club.
Earlier this Thursday (May 8), the Red Devils secured a place in the UEFA Europa League final after defeating Athletic 7-1 on aggregate. Diallo was brought on in the 62nd minute of the second leg and the winger laid out one assist as a substitute.
After the end of the clash, Diallo posted on Instagram with a caption:
Rashford left a one-word reply in the comment section of the post:
Diallo, 22, recently returned from a lengthy ankle injury and is thought to regain full fitness in the near future. The Ivorian has contributed 10 goals and nine assists in 39 appearances across competitions for Manchester United this season.
Rashford, on the other hand, has scored just four goals and provided six assists in 17 overall matches since joining Aston Villa on a loan transfer.
When asked if Alejandro Garnacho can still pop up as an important star at Manchester United, Red Devils icon Paul Scholes replied to TNT Sports (h/t Metro):
Opining on Garnacho’s future at his former team, Scholes commented:
Garnacho, 20, has started 36 of his 55 total appearances for his side this season. He has found the back of the net 11 times and laid out 10 assists, featuring in 3,500 minutes of club action this term.
The Argentine is reportedly a transfer target for Chelsea and Napoli now.
