Amad is hoping to be in Ruben Amorim’s starting XI when United face Tottenham in their crunch Europa League final in Bilbao tomorrow.

As well as lifting the trophy, the winners will book a place in next season’s Champions League.

Amad was part of the United squad which reached the final in 2021, and he was on loan with Rangers when they got there the following season.

He watched his respective teams lose as an unused substitute in both games but he is hoping it will be third time lucky this week.

The Ivory Coast winger said: “I already lost two, so I hope to win this one. I keep praying for that one.
