Amad Diallo drops significant injury return hint in Man United training footage
Amad appears to have shared an exciting update on his return from injury before Man United face a key clash against Lyon.
The Red Devils have a chance to lift silverware this season, even despite their incredibly poor Premier League campaign, with the French side standing in the way of a spot in the Europa League semi-finals.
Andre Onana was at the very centre of controversy for Man United after making two costly errors in the first leg, having already gone toe-to-toe with Nemanja Matic on social media.
While it has been a very tough start to life at Old Trafford for Ruben Amorim, there were sparks of positivity before Amad’s devastating injury blow, and he could help salvage the season now.
Amad Diallo shares positive training update after huge injury blow
Taking to Instagram stories (14 April), the 22-year-old shared a video of himself back on the training pitch, back sprinting after a horrendous ankle injury, one which was supposed to end his season.
The player was clearly just happy to be back out on the grass, rather than cooped up in the treatment room, but it is certainly a massive boost for Amorim and the squad if he can make a dramatic return.

Football Insider verdict
Amorim is under immense pressure at Man United despite only being in charge for the last five months, with the Red Devils continuing to slip further and further down the Premier League table.
Few supporters expected them to get anything out of their league clash against Newcastle United, and with Eddie Howe‘s side putting four past them at St James’ Park, they were absolutely right.
However, United can still end the season on a positive note by lifting the Europa League title, with only the likes of Lazio, Rangers, Athletic Bilbao, and Tottenham left in the competition.

They should definitely be favourites to pip those teams to victory, and if Amad is to make a timely return from injury before the end of the season, it would be an incredible boost in the final third.
With Marcus Rashford firing on all cylinders at Aston Villa, but Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee struggling to find the back of the net, his goalscoring prowess is exactly what is needed right now.
