MANCHESTER UNITED fans have been left excited by footage of Amad Diallo making the beautiful game look easy in training.
The winger, 18, has only been at United since January after completing a stunning £37million switch from Atalanta.
Diallo has one goal in eight appearances under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
And his whirlwind 2021 continued with a first senior appearance for Ivory Coast in March.
But Diallo looks only to be getting better and better judging by some impressive skills on the training field.
United had a session on Tuesday evening at the Polsat Plus Arena in Gdansk, Poland, ahead of tonight’s Europa League final against Villarreal.

A mini-match between players saw Diallo pick up the ball in a central location before darting between two oncoming opponents.
The teen then sliced through the other side’s defence with an exquisite playmaker’s pass to find Daniel James.
And the Welshman put the finishing touches on the move by firing his shot precisely into the back of the goal.
Diallo’s silky skills certainly got United fans buzzing ahead of tonight’s game.

One tweeted: “Look at the weight on that pass. Amad is really something.”
Another added: “If there’s one thing I’ve noticed about Amad is he almost always makes the right pass at the right time.
“I can’t wait to see how he turns out for us.”
Despite his fine showing in training, Diallo is not expected to start for United this evening.
Marcus Rashford is set to line up on the right flank, with Paul Pogba on the left and Bruno Fernandes in behind Edinson Cavani.
That allows the midfield pivot of Fred and Scott McTominay to continue, with Luke Shaw and Aaron Wan-Bissaka at full-back.
David De Gea and Victor Lindelof will also start, while Eric Bailly is set to continue in place of the injured Harry Maguire.
But Solskjaer could yet spring a surprise by playing youngster Axel Tuanzebe instead – or even Maguire himself after keeping the status of his captain’s injury under close guard.
