Manchester United midfielder Amad Diallo has revealed he's closer to a playing return.

After a superb last season on-loan with Sunderland, he suffered a knee injury in preseason against Arsenal.

Amad is now closing on a playing return, with his recovery in it's final stretch.

On his Instagram story, Amad posted a picture of himself in United gear with the caption: "Just a little longer before returning".

Amad is hoping to be fit for Ivory Coast's African Cup of Nations campaign.
