Manchester United 'have high hopes for Amad Diallo, Facundo Pellistri'

Manchester United reportedly have 'high hopes' regarding the futures of young duo Amad Diallo and Facundo Pellistri.

Manchester United are reportedly confident that Amad Diallo and Facundo Pellistri will eventually become key players at Old Trafford.

While United missed out on Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho during the summer transfer window, the Premier League giants moved to seal deals for Diallo and Pellistri.

Although the pair are not expected to be thrown into the first-team picture over the next six months, Manchester Evening News journalist Tyrone Marshall has acknowledged that much is expected of the teenagers.

Speaking during a Q&A, Marshall said: "United have very high hopes for both players, but right now they're not the right-wingers needed for the first team.

"Pellestri has only just arrived and Diallo doesn't arrive until January, it's too much to expect either to come in and start making an impact on the first team.

"In the next 12 to 24 months perhaps they could do that, but whether they can reach Sancho's level is difficult to say."

Solskjaer has used Mason Greenwood, Daniel James and Juan Mata on the right flank this season.
