Amad Diallo Completes Manchester United Switch From Atalanta
Badmus Abdulsobur
Manchester United have finalised the signing of Amad Diallo from Atalanta having completed the correct paperwork.
The club agreed a fee, which could rise to £37m with add-ons, back in October on the final day of the summer transfer window but the deal was subject to securing a work permit and personal terms.
United obtained Diallo’s Governing Body Exemption this week having applied for it on January 1st and he becomes the first player to be signed and registered under these new FA rules which have been implemented post-Brexit.
Once that was obtained the 18-year-old winger was able to fly to Rome, which he did earlier this week, to obtain his visa.
As soon as his visa has been issued he will be able to fly to Manchester to join up with his new teammates.
It is understood he will not have to self- isolate as he has been part of Atalanta’s bubble which makes him exempt from the Government rules.
The teenage winger, who made two appearances for Atalanta’s first team this season, has signed a deal which will keep him at the club until June 2025, with the option for a further year.
