Manchester United fans are calling for Amad to be given a chance in the first team after the youngster showcased his ability in a training video uploaded by the club on social media.
Amad has been injured this season.
The 21-year-old Ivory Coast winger was injured during pre-season and is yet to appear for United this season. The ex-Atalanta player, however, has returned to Carrington to train.
In a quick clip shared on their Instagram account, United showed the forward rushing past his man and scoring with flair during an offensive workout. Antony followed Amad in the workout, and while the former Ajax winger scored as well, it took him a little longer than Amad.
Amad’s performance clearly delighted his fans. Here are some Instagram responses from Manchester United fans to the club’s most recent post.
“Very excited for Amad at RW,” @shabarikailash said.
“Major difference between Amad and Antony,” observed @joshsumoski.
@iamjusticesima said, “Amad made it look easy.”
On Twitter, @tabrez_abdullah stated, “Can’t wait for Amad to get a run in the team.”
“This confirms my point,” @sonshineiv.vii added. “Amad triumphs over Antony.”
Amad impressed at Sunderland last season after struggling on loan with Rangers the year before. He played 42 games for the Championship club, scoring 14 goals and assisting on four others. United supporters will be hoping he is given a chance to shine once he has recovered to full fitness.
