Cesc Fabregas responds to Man United's transfer interest in teenage winger admired by Ruben Amorim

Cesc Fabregas has responded firmly to reports linking Manchester United with a move for Como starlet Assane Diao – insisting the ambitious Serie A side have no intention of cashing in on their top young talents.

The 19-year-old winger, who represents Senegal at international level, has made an instant impact in Italy since joining Como from Real Betis in January for £10.5million.

Diao has scored six goals in just 13 Serie A outings, catching the eye with his electric pace and fearless attacking play.

His form has reportedly attracted attention from Old Trafford, with United said to be tracking the teenager as part of their summer rebuild.
