The man who first talent spotted new Manchester United signing Amad Diallo has revealed the club had been chasing the 'incredible talent' for more than a year.
United wrapped up a deadline day move for the Atalanta prospect worth an initial £21m that could rise to £37m with add-ons. He is expected to complete the switch in January, subject to a medical, personal terms and a work permit.
Giovanni Galli, who played in goal for Italy in the 1980s, recalls first seeing Amad and his brother Hamed play for the first time back in 2014 in his role as Lucchese’s sporting director.
