Saw somewhere that we've been linked to him for more than a year.
Sometimes you just have to take risk on young talents. 24 mins of football at age 17-18 is nothing to be ashamed of. Of course I’d prefer we buy a CB and DM. But as for RWF, we failed big time on Sancho, who else would you want in last day of market? Will you prefer having average player like Sarr who would cost 40m+, or injury-proned Dembele for 65m? There’s not much options there. 18 yr old talented Traore for 20m up front is as good as we could get.You're not understanding. I don't have an issue with the kid at all. I like that we make these types of signings. BUT right now, we needed to fix up the first team, not invest in the future. We are obviously working under a limited budget, and that 20m could've went into improving the first team, which this kid does not do, and will not do for a good couple of years. He's played 24 minutes of professional football. . .
That is stupid.Row erupts as Parma chief slams Man Utd for ‘pinching’ Amad Diallo

He was gonna join Parma because the Atalanta coach (Gasperini) favours playing a wingback system and him staying there didn't make sense due to that reason.Has he been on the bench for any of Atlanta's games this season so far?
Can someone explain why it looked like he was joining Parma on loan or was that just nonsense?
so are we now at Parma level ? pinching players should be going to Parma?Row erupts as Parma chief slams Man Utd for ‘pinching’ Amad Diallo

Well technically he is our player now so we can always send him to Parma on loan if they love him so much? They should shut up really thoughRow erupts as Parma chief slams Man Utd for ‘pinching’ Amad Diallo

mate you seriously using This to bash the club? So If he was off to Madrid, you would have been happier.so are we now at Parma level ? pinching players should be going to Parma?
He's been on the bench for their last game 3 matches, although Serie A teams can name 12 subs.Has he been on the bench for any of Atlanta's games this season so far?

Yes you saw Ole saying it yestersay
supposedly they’d annouced his loan signing on their social media. His brother Hamed looks like a really promising player too. He’s an attacking midfielder for Sassuolo.Well technically he is our player now so we can always send him to Parma on loan if they love him so much? They should shut up really though
Does anybody know who he will play for internationally?
Has he played underage for the Ivory Coast?
Not easy to have a good laugh on the Caf' these days.I googled underage, Ivory Coast and now I'm sat in the interview room of my local Police station.
Can someone please call them and explain?
Depending on when the medical is scheduled for, they may not play him regardless, to avoid injuries!Bit of a nuisance he can’t join until Jan. Doubt Atalanta will play him due to them not playing with wingers

That's quite easy prediction if it's for this season and quite ridiculous if it's his career prediction with us.I'll be shocked if he plays 20 games for us
Imagine if Atlanta played him and he gets a long term injury. What happens then?Bit of a nuisance he can’t join until Jan. Doubt Atalanta will play him due to them not playing with wingers
Yep, that deserves a new tagline if he actually reaches his potentialThat's quite easy prediction if it's for this season and quite ridiculous if it's his career prediction with us.
Same as when we loan players out or they go on international duty really - the crap part of sports.Imagine if Atlanta played him and he gets a long term injury. What happens then?
Wow, very impressive. Especially so, considering he was the youngest on the list, starting the season at the age of 16.Did some investigation. I checked out last seasons U19 games. I filtered out players who completed less than 500 minutes and focussed on wingers or wide midfielders. I've only checked the top half of the table.
I've also sorted by age, oldest top of the list.

3rd highest goal count and top assister despite being the youngster (by some distance). Very impressive.
that would make sense if we thought he would play there wouldnt itWell technically he is our player now so we can always send him to Parma on loan if they love him so much? They should shut up really though
My thoughts exactly. Let's all wind our necks in a bit and get on with things. All this bitching and complaining won't help the team nor will it cause the owners and senior management of the club to change established operating policy - it is what it is. What we need is positivity, not unproductive whinging.Happy for the lad and really hope he does well with us when he joins in January. Seems a well rated prospect in Italy.
A little shameful seeing all the replies though full of fans taking out their frustrations over the window on his announcement post instead of wishing him well
You don't think there's a right winger in world football who would both improve us and represent value for money?Sometimes you just have to take risk on young talents. 24 mins of football at age 17-18 is nothing to be ashamed of. Of course I’d prefer we buy a CB and DM. But as for RWF, we failed big time on Sancho, who else would you want in last day of market?

There’s not much options there. 18 yr old talented Traore for 20m up front is as good as we could get.
There was definitely other RW who could have improved us and provided value for money but unfortunately we didn't look at them early enough as naively believed that Dortmund would lower their valuation and ran out of timeYou don't think there's a right winger in world football who would both improve us and represent value for money?
I know that's not exactly what you said, but it annoys me when people say 'well who would you rather we sign?' because it feels like a an unrealistc challenge. Unlike a random bloke on the Internet, the club has hundreds of scouts whose job it is to find players who can improve our team.
Great stuff. Don’t you also have some analysis for Facundo Pellistri?Did some investigation. I checked out last seasons U19 games. I filtered out players who completed less than 500 minutes and focussed on wingers or wide midfielders. I've only checked the top half of the table.

God I hate we aren't able to see him until JanuaryApparently he's two-footed as well, though from the vids it seems his left is his preferred foot.
