AMAD DIALLO has joined Sunderland on loan from Manchester United.
The young Ivorian will spend the 22/23 campaign at The Stadium of Light.
The attacker spent the second-half of last season on loan at Rangers.
He failed to make the desired impact, but did prove a popular figure among Giovanni van Bronckhorst's squad.
The 20-year-old becomes Sunderland's seventh summer signing, teaming up with Dan Ballard, Jack Clarke, Aji Alese, Alex Bass, Jewison Bennette and Edouard Michut as the club's new recruits.

Diallo said: “I feel good and very positive about this opportunity, so I’m happy to be here. It was a great experience to play with Manchester United, but I’m here for a new challenge and I want to try my best to bring a lot of success to the Club.
"I feel good physically and I think this is the best team for me to progress and although I’ve never been to the Stadium of Light before, I know the supporters are great so I hope we can win many games together.”
