AMAD DIALLO has reportedly made a decision regarding his future after a successful loan spell in the Championship.
The Manchester United youngster spent last season at Sunderland where he shone as they came close to gaining promotion back to the top flight.
Diallo’s future has been up in the air since their play-off semi-final loss to Luton, but it has now been reported that he has made his decision on what he wants.
According to the reliable Fabrizio Romano, Diallo is hoping for a chance in the first team at Manchester United next season.
However it is said that if Erik ten Hag would prefer the 20-year-old go back out on loan then he would like to return to the North East with Sunderland.
The decision lies with the United boss who is looking for attacking reinforcements in the transfer market this summer.

The report suggests that Ten Hag will make his decision on the forward in the coming weeks.
Diallo managed 13 league goals and three assists in the Championship last season as The Black Cats finished in sixth place.
He scored in the 2-1 playoff first-leg against the Hatters, before Sunderland were beaten on aggregate.
The Ivory Coast international joined Man Utd back in January 2021 for a deal worth up to £37million, but has only made nine appearances for the first team since.
