Manchester United forward Amad Diallo has left the club’s camp after the death of a close family member, the club confirmed on Friday.
The 22-year-old Ivorian has travelled home to be with his loved ones during this period of mourning. A United spokesperson conveyed the club’s full support, noting the emotional impact of the loss on the player.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, he quoted manager Rúben Amorim on X (formerly Twitter) as saying: “Amad is not with us as a member of his family passed away. We are giving all the support to Amad and understand he needed to return home.”
With his compassionate leave, Diallo is expected to miss United’s early kick-off against Brentford on Saturday.
Teammates, club officials and fans have since sent heartfelt messages of condolence, offering support to the young winger during this difficult time.
