Manchester United would have turned their attention to Como Assane Diao’s winger after missing Geovany Quenda.
The Red Devils had watched the rising star of Sporting CP Quenda as one of their key targets before the summer transfer window. The 17 -year -old was eager to connect to Ruben Amorim, and Sporting was just as interested in getting around.
However, the continuous financial and sporting uncertainties of Man United indicated that they could not obtain an agreement above the line, opening the way to Chelsea to intervene and secure Quenda for 51 million euros.

It is believed that they could concentrate on Roger Fernandes of Braga in direct replacement, while others claim that they may not continue at all a similar alternative. .
Despite uncertainty, it seems that United still keeps an eye on potential reinforcements. Italian journalist Nicolo Schira reports that the club started looking for Assane Diao.
The Senegalese winger first made waves in Real Betis last season, having an immediate impact with a series of goals before his form dives. In January, he moved to Como, joining the ambitious project of Cesc Fabregas, and quickly made his presence felt.

The 19 -year -old found the net five times in his first eight of Serie A for the newly promoted club, although he has now won four games without scoring.
Schia says that a scout Man United was in the stands on Saturday while the Como drew 1-1 with Empoli. It is still not known if the como center would be open to the sale of diao so shortly after having signed it. Fabregas and club president Mirwan Suwarso were both expressed on their long -term vision.
“We have no intention of selling one of our players, at least not in the near future,” said Suwarso Calcio e Finanza last month. “Perhaps in three or four years – because it would be naive to say that the sales of the players are not part of the company. And we do not lack money – we are well supported.”
