The Premier League season kicked off with a 2-0 loss to Hull City, and Diallo was not included in the starting lineup. Manager Michael Carrick faces a major injury blow to his squad. Preliminary scans have been conducted, but additional tests are pending to provide a clearer prognosis. However, the current indications are concerning, suggesting Diallo might miss the remainder of September and early October. United resumes their campaign against Ipswich Town at Old Trafford on Sunday, and they urgently need to regain their winning form. They face Everton, Manchester City, and Fulham in September before matches against Tottenham Hotspur, Leeds United, Bournemouth, and Chelsea in October. Carrick has bolstered his lineup with the additions of Andrey Santos, Youri Tielemans, and Karl Darlow, and Carlos Bacca is expected to arrive from Brighton & Hove Albion. The manager hopes to fortify his attack before the summer transfer window concludes, as Diallo's absence could compel the club to expedite their recruitment efforts. The 24-year-old was a crucial player under Carrick last season and is keen to make a swift return to action.",
