Global sports media ESPN reported on the 18th (Korea time) 'Manchester United and Ahmad Diallo have begun final negotiations to renew their contracts'
ESPN said `Diallo and Manchester United negotiated for several weeks to sign a long-term contract, leaving only minor details. The news said it would formalise the contract within 2024 '
Diallo moved to Manchester United from Atalanta in January 2021. Diallo, who joined Manchester United with a high transfer fee of 40 million euros (about 60 billion won) as a prospect at the time, was called up to Manchester United's first team in his first season. He played in eight games in his first season, raising expectations for the next season.
But the ordeal came to Diallo. Jadon Sancho joined and lost his seat. United continued to prepare for the signing and call-up of second-line resources, and Diallo had to leave for Rangers and Sunderland for two seasons, respectively. In the three years since his transfer, he has played only nine games for Manchester United.

Diallo, who started as the main player in the Houbeng Amorim system after going through Tenhach, is actively playing with four goals and six assists in 23 games. He showed his skills regardless of his wingback position and second line. Advantages such as fast speed, dribbling, and simple shooting were displayed, and they became a key resource for coach Amorim. In the Manchester derby against Manchester City, Diallo scored the winning goal and Manchester United took the victory.
Manchester United will repay Dailo, who has shown clear growth, with a long-term contract. Diallo is currently under contract until the summer of 2025, with United working to extend his contract with Diallo before it expires. It seems that it has already entered the final stage.
After a long wait, Diallo exploded his talent and grew into the main player of Manchester United. If the current performance continues, the company with Manchester United is expected to continue for a longer time.
