With a number of Serie A clubs being interested in him while at Boca Barco, Diallo moved to Atalanta in 2015.[6] While initially starting out with the under-14s during the 2015–16 season, Diallo quickly moved to the under-15 team.[6] He played in the Final Eight, scoring against Roma in the final and helping his side win the league title.[6]

Manchester United



2020–21: Debut season

On 5 October 2020, Manchester United agreed to sign Diallo in January 2021, pending the agreement of personal terms, passing a medical and the issue of a work permit.[16][17] The reported fee was of €25 million – €40 million including bonuses.[18] Diallo officially joined on 7 January 2021, on a five-year contract with the option of an extra year.[19]

Diallo scored a brace on his debut for the Under-23s, in a 6–3 win over Liverpool on 30 January.[20] He was first called up to the senior team on 9 February, as an unused substitute in an FA Cup fifth round match against West Ham United,[21] which ended in a 1–0 Manchester United win after extra time.[22] On 18 February, Diallo made his first-team debut for United as a substitute for Mason Greenwood in a 4–0 away win over Real Sociedad in the first leg of the Europa League round of 32 tie.[23] His first goal for United came on 11 March, in a 1–1 home draw against AC Milan in the first leg of the Europa League round of 16 tie.[24]

On 13 March, Diallo was selected by the IFFHS in their 2020 CAF Youth Team of the Year (U20).[25] He made his FA Cup debut on 21 March, coming on as an 84th-minute substitute in a 3–1 away defeat against Leicester City in the quarter-finals.[26] On 11 May, Diallo made his Premier League debut against Leicester City, assisting Mason Greenwood's goal in a 2–1 defeat; the goal was the first time in 15 years a teenager assisted another for a Premier League goal.[27]

Style of play


A winger who is also capable of playing as a mezzala, Diallo is a quick and dynamic player with a high technical ability and a good vision of the game.[6] The fact that he is two-footed makes him a versatile player.[6]


Controversies


In July 2020, an investigation into trafficking of football players was launched by the public prosecutor's office of Parma.[39] Among the involved was Hamed Mamadou Traorè, a distant relative of Amad and his alleged brother Hamed Traorè, who was accused of posing as their father to facilitate their immigration into Italy.[39] The investigation also questioned the relationship between Amad and Hamed.[40]

On 11 July 2020, the day of his 18th birthday, the player changed his Instagram name from "Amad Traoré" to "Amad Diallo", with a caption reading "don't call me Traoré anymore".[41] In September 2020, his name was legally changed to Amad Diallo.[42]

On 9 February 2021, Diallo was found guilty of violating the Italian Sports Justice Code in order to join the football club "ASD Boca Barco" in 2015 under the name "Diallo Amad Traorè".[7] He was accused of falsifying documents in order to fake a relationship with Hamed Mamadou Traorè, an Ivorian citizen resident in Italy, and request a family reunification.[7] Diallo requested a plea bargain, with the Federal Prosecutor's Office imposing a fine of €48,000.[7]


Personal life


Diallo is Muslim.[43][44] He received his Italian passport at the end of December 2020.[45]
