Manchester United have expressed interest in Assane Diao, a 19-year-old winger who is currently playing for Como in Serie A. Since his transfer from Real Betis to Como in January, Diao has scored five goals in 12 appearances, highlighting his potential. Manchester United dispatched a scout to observe his performance against Empoli. Although Diao did not score in that match, he was the only player whom Como's head coach, Cesc Fabregas, praised for his efforts and performance. Diao is under contract with Como until 2029, and there has been no discussion of a transfer fee yet, as Como only recently acquired him. His impressive performances have drawn Manchester United's attention, and they may consider pursuing him if he continues to perform well, particularly as they seek to bolster their squad under the leadership of new head coach Ruben Amorim.
