Man Utd's Amad Mourns the Loss of Brother's Mum with Heartfelt Tribute

Manchester United star Amad has recently shared the heartbreaking news of the passing of his brother's mum, just before the Premier League fixture against Brighton and Hove Albion. The 22-year-old winger took to social media on Friday night to reveal the tragic loss, receiving an outpouring of support from fans and the football community.

Amad, who is on the verge of a breakout season with Manchester United, posted a heartfelt tribute on Snapchat. He shared a photo of his brother's mum holding him as a child, captioned, "Rest in peace Mum, may Allah forgive you." Though not his biological mother, Amad has spoken openly about the strong bond they shared.

The Ivory Coast international joined Manchester United three years ago in a £37 million transfer from Atalanta. He was set to make an impact this season, especially after a strong pre-season showing. However, his participation in Saturday’s match against Brighton at the Amex Stadium may be in doubt as he mourns this personal loss.

Reflecting on his relationship with his brother's mum, Amad shared how deeply she influenced his journey in football. "After my United debut against Real Sociedad, I called her, and she was in tears. She couldn’t believe I had made it," Amad once told the club's website. "She always believed in me, always told me to stay humble and work hard."

Since making his debut for Manchester United against Real Sociedad, Amad has made 23 senior appearances, scoring three goals and providing two assists. He experienced a challenging loan spell at Rangers during the second half of the 2021/22 season but made his mark the following year with Sunderland, scoring 14 goals and assisting four in the Championship.

Now back at Manchester United, Amad has emerged as a key player under manager Erik ten Hag. With Antony and Jadon Sancho struggling for form, Amad has climbed up the pecking order and is expected to share right-wing duties with Alejandro Garnacho this season. He has already started in both of United's opening games against Manchester City in the Community Shield and Fulham in the Premier League.

As Amad navigates this emotional period, he has the full support of his teammates and fans, who are eager to see him continue his promising career at Old Trafford. His resilience and determination are evident, and many are hopeful that he will turn this personal tragedy into motivation on the pitch
