Manchester United winger Amad Diallo is wanted by Wayne Rooney's Derby County on loan... and Anthony Elanga is keen to go out on loan too but Ralf Rangnick wants to keep him at United

Derby County are keen to sign Manchester United Amad Diallo on loan, as Wayne Rooney turns to his former club to bolster his squad in the January transfer window.

The Ivorian arrived from Atalanta to huge fanfare in a £25 million deal in January last year, but his opportunities at Old Trafford have been very limited so far.

The 19-year-old has featured just nine times in all competitions for United's senior squad scoring one goal.
