In the summer, Manchester United agreed a deal with Atalanta to sign Amad Diallo in the winter transfer window (MUFC).
As per the latest update provided by Fabrizio Romano, the youngster will finally seal his move to Old Trafford after meeting the deadlines and receiving his passport.

The renowned Italian journalist, who writes for The Guardian, revealed that the player will now fly to Manchester next month to secure his £36million move to the Red Devils.
The 18-year-old boy is mainly a right winger, who was highly impressive in the Youth league for the Italian side last season. In 16 appearances, he directly contributed in 11 goals and was promoted to the first team.
Diallo made his debut for the senior Atalanta side against Udinese last year and scored his first goal in the contest as well.
However, in the current campaign, the attacker has mainly warmed the bench under the management of Gasperini. So far, he has only made two appearances this season.
The Ivorian featured for 22 minutes vs Midtjylland in the Champions League and only for 13 minutes in the 2-0 defeat against Hellas Verona in the Serie A.
It will be intriguing to see how well the teenage sensation will prove to be at Man Utd. It is good that we have invested in youth again by signing a talented right winger but in all fairness, we still need a proven quality right winger to improve our first team.
Have your say – Who should Man United sign to strengthen the squad next month?
I think that Manchester United should sign a proven right winger and a quality central defender coming this January transfer window to be able to challenge for the premier league title.
Jack Grealish.
