Imagine say this 23-year-old guy don score three goals and provide one assist with three man-of-the-match awards in just four games. Chai! For Manchester United, e only fit score two goals in 15 matches. Na wetin happen for there? Dem dey play am for wingback position when e fit be better winger.
As dem dey prepare for quarter-final against Egypt, Amad dey humble, but e no fit hide him talent. E come talk say the Ivorian coach, Emerse Faé, don give am more attacking freedom. Na why e fit dey shine like diamond. “I fit dey go 1v1 because e be different position, for United, na wingback dem dey put me,” Na wetin Amad talk.
Now, e dey face familiar faces wey dey play for Premier League – Mohamed Salah and Omar Marmoush. E don prepare well well for this match. For those wey no sabi, the last time Ivory Coast meet Egypt na for 2006 final wey dem take penalty win. This quarter-final go hot!
Ivory Coast don pass their last-16 match with burst as dem beat Burkina Faso 3-0. Amad no just bright, e score first goal for 20th minute and na him set up Yan Diomande wey add another goal for 32nd minute. E don strong pass dem!
But the pressure go dey when e return to Manchester United after AFCON. E no go easy to fit back into that system wey no dey appreciate wetin e get. The new interim coach go need to shine eye for Amad so that no go make mistake again!
We go dey follow the drama as e dey unfold. Make we just dey watch how e go be for Saturday against Egypt. Naija dey root for Amad make e carry my country flag proud!
