Manchester United’s Amad Diallo has emerged as a surprise contender in the Premier League’s assist leaderboard for the 2024/25 season.
The Ivorian winger has been in scintillating form, racking up six assists so far and showcasing his ability to unlock defenses with precision.
While Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka leads the pack with 10 assists, Diallo’s contributions have placed him level with Chelsea’s Cole Palmer, keeping the Red Devils in contention for key attacking honors. Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah sits second with eight assists, while Diallo’s teammate Bruno Fernandes is just behind on five, highlighting United’s creative depth.
This season marks a breakthrough for Diallo, who has consistently delivered on the promise that saw him move to Old Trafford as a teenager. His progress is earning him plaudits and raising expectations as Erik ten Hag looks to guide United into title contention.
With stars like Tottenham’s Son Heung-min and Aston Villa’s Youri Tielemans also in the mix, the race for the assist crown promises an electrifying finish—but Amad Diallo is proving he belongs among the league’s elite.
