Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has predicted a big season for one of the club's bright talents.
Erik ten Hag has issued a challenge to Amad Diallo to take his game to the next level and become a key player for Manchester United, after the winger's impressive performance in the pre-season win over Rangers.
Diallo was unstoppable on the right wing, causing problems for the Scottish side with his pace and skill, and capped off his display with a beautifully taken goal before the break.

Ten Hag is confident that the 22-year-old has the talent and potential to make a significant impact for United this season, saying: "Of course, he's still young, but he's not inexperienced anymore.
"Last season he had some bad luck with injuries, but before that, he was in the Championship and had a great season.
"At the end of last season, he had a very good time in our first team, played some good games. Now this has to be the year. It's great that he starts like this."
Diallo has the potential to make a significant impact, especially with Antony yet to find his feet at the club. The starting right wing spot is up for grabs and the Ivorian international has made a great start.
