Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits Amad Diallo's planned first team introduction could be brought forward.

Diallo, 18, completed his £37million transfer from Atalanta two weeks ago and arrived in Manchester last week for his first training sessions at United's Carrington training complex.

This morning, Solskjaer said of the teen: "Very good.

"He can handle the ball, he's enjoyed training, he makes a difference in training, which is quite remarkable at his age.

"There's some adjustment to settle into the hustle and bustle and the physical part of the Premier League but I can't see it being too long until he's in the squad.

"It might be quicker than [four or five weeks], who knows? He's definitely settled down well, the players have taken to him, he's a very good character, a very polite, smiley boy who works really hard.

"He's doing his sessions, getting used to us, of course, there's always a period of adjustment needed but he's settling in well."
