Amad Diallo wanted to play more for Atalanta's first-team prior to his Manchester United transfer but claims it was not possible.

However, since his move to United was announced, Diallo played just 35 minutes for the Atalanta first-team - coming off the bench in the Champions League against Midtjylland and in the league against Hellas Verona.



I’m looking forward to starting."



Diallo claims he wanted to feature more for Atalanta but is looking forward to learn at Old Trafford.

"I would have hoped to have played a little bit more with Atalanta, but it wasn’t possible.

"It’s been a little bit strange these last few months," he told the club's official media channels.

Diallo's move to United was announced during the summer window with the Reds finalising their deal to sign the 18-year-old earlier this month.
