'He was unstoppable at times' - how Amad became Manchester United's most exciting player

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

You should never fall in love with a loan player, but Sunderland fans fell head over heels for Amad. "The Sunderland fans absolutely adored him up there and they had a song about him.

I think a lot of them did fall in love," said former Sunderland captain Corry Evans. "When there were rumours he was going back to Sunderland last year, the whole place was getting excited, but it wasn’t to be and he's been Manchester United's go-to man this season." Amad has become a regular starter at Old Trafford but there have been setbacks along the way.

His success at Sunderland was sandwiched between a loan with Rangers that didn't go as planned and a knee injury on tour with United.

Then he was overlooked by Erik ten Hag when he was fit again. Just a year later, there would be uproar if Amad departed and the youngster recently signed a contract that will expire in the summer of 2030, highlighting how much he's valued.
