Amad Diallo: I never hesitated when Man Utd made offer

Amad Diallo is full of pride being a Manchester United player.

Now fully fit, Amad made his comeback in defeat at Nottingham Forest last week.

He recalled, "I remember that I was at home and the (Atalanta) director called me. He said: 'Amad, United want to sign you'. I said, 'Really? United? No, no, you're kidding, you're kidding!

"I said I would sign immediately 'It's Manchester United. It is my dream to play at Old Trafford.

"He said: 'Really?', to which I replied: I say: 'Yes, yes, yes. Give me the contract and I'll sign it right away'.

"I was so happy. I called my Mum straight away and said Manchester United wanted me. So I was so happy. It happened quickly."
