Man United's Amad says he doesn't regret flipping off fan
MANCHESTER United player Amad Diallo recently went viral after he was caught on camera making a rude gesture—showing his middle finger—towards fans while entering a hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia recently. A brief 23-second video shared by X user @hrfuturesnq captured the moment, and has since garnered over 760,000 views. Meanwhile Diallo posted a statement on X saying he shouldn't have reacted that way—but made it clear he has no regrets. 'I have respect for people, but not for someone who insults my mom,' the Ivory Coast forward wrote. 'I shouldn't have reacted like that, but I don't regret what I did. We had a great time in Malaysia with good people.' Following the friendly match against the ASEAN All-Stars, Diallo was once again caught on camera—this time allegedly asking a local Malaysian to help pay for his e-scooter ride. Manchester United suffered a 1-0 defeat to the ASEAN All-Stars on May 28.

‘I don't regret what I did' – ex-Rangers star refuses to back down after flashing shocking gesture at his own fans
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FORMER Rangers star Amad Diallo has come under fire after showing the middle finger to fans whilst on tour in Malaysia. But the Manchester United forward insists he DOESN'T regret the shocking flashpoint. 3 Amad Diallo was caught showing the middle finger to supporters Credit: TikTok/@ahmdhakimi 3 United were on tour in Malaysia, where the star was caught making the gesture Credit: TikTok/@ahmdhakimi 3 He has since said his piece on X Credit: TikTok/@ahmdhakimi The Ivorian forward was caught doing the gesture twice on the club's post-season tour - with team-mate Alejandro Garnacho also making the same sign to supporters - but claimed it was a response to personal abuse from fans. In footage shared by a supporter on social media, Amad is seen flashing the X-rated gesture as he walks past fans shouting his name. Then on a second occasion he repeats the sign as he gets off the team bus. But Amad, who joined Rangers on loan from Old Traford in January 2022, claims it was a response to vile comments from fans about his mum. In a post on X, he said: "I have respect for people but not for the one who insults my mom… I shouldn't have reacted like that but I don't regret what I did. "We had a great time in Malaysia with good people." Then Rangers Sporting Director Ross Wilson branded the signing of Diallo as "a really exciting signing" at the time, whilst then manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst said Diallo would "add a lot to our squad". Diallo got off to the dream start at Rangers, netting in the opening five minutes of his debut in Dingwall. It went from a dream to a nightmare for the Ivorian though, his Dingwall delight led to him earning a starting spot in the next match, an Old Firm game, only to be hauled off at half-time. Celtic walked away 3-0 winners that night, and Amad only started two more games for the Gers. Robert Grieve & Bill Leckie have the very latest on the Rangers manager situation as Steven Gerrard & Russell Martin emerge as front-runners Diallo made 13 appearances for the Light Blues in the end, scoring three goals. Despite not setting the heather alight north of the border, Diallo has been a stand out for Manchester United in what has been an underwhelming season. He has racked up 43 appearances in all competitions, scoring 11 times and assisting 10. Argentine winger Garnacho has been told to find a new club as Man Utd plan a massive overhaul this summer after missing out on European football. It was former Celtic boss Ange Postecoglu who inflicted the damage on United, as his Spurs side walked away 1-0 winners in the Europa League final. Postecoglu ended Spurs' 17-year trophy drought, and gave the north London side Champions League football despite finishing 17th in the league, just four point behind Manchester United.

No regrets over obscene gesture, says Man Utd's Diallo
MANCHESTER United's Amad Diallo said he should not have raised his middle finger when walking past fans during the club's post-season tour in Asia but added that he had no regrets doing it as someone had allegedly insulted his mother. The 22-year-old Ivorian winger was seen raising his finger when the team were walking past fans in Kuala Lumpur, where they lost to the ASEAN All-Stars on Wednesday. 'I have respect for people but not for the one who insults my mom. I shouldn't have reacted like that but I don't regret what I did,' Diallo wrote on X on Thursday. 'We had a great time in Malaysia with good people.' Diallo had come on as a substitute for the second half of the loss. The players were also booed after the defeat and United boss Ruben Amorim said his team, who finished 15th in the Premier League, cannot hide from their fans. United wrap up their post-season tour with a match against Hong Kong on Friday.
