Amad Diallo starred in Manchester United’s win over Rangers on Saturday before it emerged why he missed the club’s first pre-season game against Rosenborg in Trondheim earlier in the week.
Manager Erik ten Hag saw Diallo score an excellent opening goal in the 2-0 win at Murrayfield and then revealed that the winger was ‘not allowed to go into Norway’ for the 1-0 defeat to Rosenborg on Monday.
It’s understood that Diallo renewed his Ivory Coast passport at the end of last season and it did not arrive in time for the trip to Trondheim.
