Diallo extends deal & predicts 'special' future for Utd
Amad Diallo insists Manchester United will build a new golden age.
After agreeing his new contract, he said: “I have huge ambitions in the game and I want to achieve history at Manchester United.
Credit: Getty “I have learnt so much since arriving here four years ago; I am very grateful to the coaches and staff who have helped me to develop, and to the fans for driving me forward every day.
“It has been a difficult season for everyone, but I fully believe that we are on the right path and the future is going to be really special.
“I am ready to give everything to help the team and make our supporters proud again.”
Amad becomes the second United player to extend his stay since the turn of the year.
It was revealed last week that a 12 month option on Harry Maguire’s contract has been activated by the Red Devils.
I have Amad dream!
Amad Diallo says he wants to make history with Manchester United after committing his future to the club until 2030, writes MARTIN BLACKBURN.
The Ivorian, 22, has been rewarded for his performances during a difficult season with a fresh five year deal to replace the one that was due to expire this summer.
Sunsport reported in November that Diallo was in line to treble his £30,000 per week wages under the new terms.
And since then he has got the dramatic late winner in the Manchester derby in December and last week he grabbed an equaliser in the 2-2 draw at Anfield.
Amad said: “I have had some incredible moments with this club already but there is so much more to come."
Toon eyeing Ramsdale
Newcastle are tracking Aaron Ramsdale, SunSport can reveal, writes EMILLIA HAWKINS.
The former Arsenal goalkeeper is highly likely to leave Southampton if they are relegated at the end of the season.
And it’s put a string of Premier League clubs on red-alert for a player who is still regarded as one of England’s best shot stoppers.
Newcastle are firmly in the market for a new keeper and could try to tempt Southampton with a January bid.
Last month SunSport revealed the Magpies were keen on Burnley’s James Trafford.
But the Championship high-fliers are desperate to keep hold of their players as they plot an immediate return to the Premier League under Scott Parker’s stewardship.
