After watching two Europa League finals from the bench, Amad Diallo is in no mood to make it an unwanted hat-trick in the San Mames on Wednesday night.
‘Now it’s my moment,’ says Manchester United’s new cult hero, and you wouldn’t bet against him taking centre-stage against Tottenham in Bilbao.
The final stage of Diallo’s journey from fringe player to fans’ favourite can be traced back to United’s draw with Fenerbahce in the group stage of the competition last October.
A fuming Diallo waiting to come on as Antony, who had been brought off the bench ahead of him, was stretchered away in Istanbul.
