Sun Feb 16 16:40:00 UTC 2025: ## Manchester United’s Top Scorer Amad Diallo Out for Season with Ligament Injury
**Manchester, England** – Manchester United’s season has taken another blow with the confirmation that star forward Amad Diallo will miss the remainder of the campaign due to a ligament injury. Manager Ruben Amorim confirmed the devastating news to Sky Sports ahead of United’s crucial match against Tottenham Hotspur.
Diallo, who has been a standout performer since earning a regular starting position following Amorim’s appointment in November, suffered the injury during training. While the club initially issued a statement suggesting an ankle injury and several weeks on the sidelines, Amorim stated definitively that the young forward is expected to be out for the rest of the season.
The injury is a significant setback for United, who are struggling in the league and fighting to remain competitive in cup competitions. Diallo, the team’s top scorer this season, leaves a significant void in the attacking line-up. His absence compounds existing concerns surrounding the form of other forwards Rasmus Højlund and Joshua Zirkzee, who will now bear the burden of leading the line.
The situation is further complicated by the January loan departures of Marcus Rashford and Antony, leaving Amorim with limited options to replace Diallo’s prolific goalscoring ability. Diallo himself expressed his disappointment on social media, vowing to return stronger. The club’s hopes of improving their league position and progressing in cup competitions now hang precariously in the balance.
