An agreement with Feyenoord had been reached, much to the delight of a smiling Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
However, it was revealed on Sunday night that an injury picked up in Diallo’s final training session at Man Utd had threatened to derail the move.
Now, according to trusted journalist Fabrizio Romano, the deal is off. The Italian tweeted the switch has ‘definitely collapsed’ due to the injury. Details as to the exact nature of the injury remain scarce. Though Romano did confirm it was a ‘muscle injury’.
Per Dutch outlet AD (via the Sun), Feyenoord’s technical director, Frank Arnesen, also confirmed the move had collapsed.
“He got injured, it’s cancelled,” said Arnesen.

“Too bad, everything was done. I’ve talked a lot with the people at Manchester United, but it’s more sensible to let him recover at that club. It may be a while before he comes back.”
