Man Utd loanee Amad Diallo says goodbye to Sunderland as fans say ‘remember us when you win the Champions League’
SUNDERLAND fans have asked to be remembered by Amad Diallo “when” he wins the Champions League.
The Manchester United prospect built a strong relationship with the Black Cats supporters during his loan spell at the club this season.

Diallo, 20, was able to help the club qualify for the playoffs to the Premier League after a fine season.
The winger netted 14 goals and assisted four more in his 42 appearances for the club.
However, he was unable to help the club to the playoff final after suffering defeat to Luton Town.
After the loss the Ivorian sent a heartwarming message to the club’s supporters, saying “one day we will meet again.”
The touching words were accompanied by a collage of pictures from his time as a Sunderland player.
And the new fans he has collected have wished him the best going forward as he returns to Man United.
One fan asked for him to “remember” them when he “wins the Champions League” on Twitter.
A second tweeted: “You have been astounding this season! You’ll always be welcome back at Sunderland. All the best for the future!”

A third commented: “Thanks for everything Amad, you’ll always get a great reception at Sunderland. Tremendous future ahead of you & the very best of luck from all of us.”
A fourth wrote: “Thanks for your time at our club. I will watch your future career with interest and wish you every success.”
A fifth said: “It’s been a pleasure to watch you this season. You’re a special player. Thanks for the memories and some spectacular goals .”
While another added with hope: “‘One day’ as in as soon as the transfer window opens? I can hope, right?”
Hopes are high for Diallo after he finally started to show his potential following his £37million switch from Serie A side Atalanta.
He has made three Premier League appearances for the Red Devils as well as having a shot loan spell with Rangers in which he scored three goals in ten SPL games.
Diallo will have the summer to prove he is worthy of a spot in Erik ten Hag‘s first-team squad ahead of next season or face another loan move away from the club.
