Pellistri returns to United training as Diallo shows off his skills

Manchester United have provided a new set of training photos from Monday’s session as the team prepare for the midweek clash with Sheffield United.

The session was notable for Facundo Pellistri featuring for the first time since he tested positive for Covid at the start of January.

There has since been speculation Pellistri could head out on loan, with The MEN reporting United are open to letting him head out to gain experience.

This may have been one of the 19-year-old’s last chances to impress Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his coaches and attempt to show he should stay put for now.

This was Pellistri’s first opportunity to join fellow new kid Amad Diallo in training.

Diallo looked in good spirits and showed off his ball skills in front of photographers.

Jesse Lingard was also present amid ongoing speculation over his future. The Telegraph reports David Moyes’ West Ham currently lead the chase to sign him on loan.

Diallo was seen watching on as Lingard showed off his skills, teaching the youngster a trick or two while he can.
