Amad Diallo has described the past week as "one of the best weeks in my life" following a standout performance in Manchester United's recent match against Southampton. The 22-year-old winger played a pivotal role in the team's 3-1 victory, scoring a late equalizer and netting two additional goals in stoppage time to secure the win. His hat-trick not only marked his first in senior football but also made him the youngest player in United's history to achieve this feat at Old Trafford in the Premier League.

Diallo's recent success comes at a crucial time in his career. Since the departure of former manager Erik ten Hag, Diallo has been given more opportunities to shine, starting 12 games and scoring eight goals under the guidance of interim coaches Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ruben Amorim. His impressive performances have significantly changed the narrative surrounding his future at the club, culminating in a new five-and-a-half-year contract that extends his stay at United until 2030.

Reflecting on the match, Diallo expressed gratitude and confidence, stating, “We believed until the end and are happy to win this game.” His manager, Amorim, praised Diallo's contributions but also emphasized the importance of keeping his feet on the ground, reminding him to enjoy his achievements while preparing for upcoming challenges. With Diallo's recent form, he is becoming an increasingly integral part of Manchester United's plans as they look to build momentum in the second half of the season.
