da bet nacional: ExWHUemployee enthused over Amadou Diallo in Blowing Bubbles magazine (Issue 101, Page 45).
What did he say?
da roleta: The West Ham insider took his column in the fanzine as an opportunity to write about West Ham youngsters such as Nathan Holland, Conor Coventry, Jeremy Ngakia and Ajibola Alese.
Though it was perhaps his comment on Diallo that will create the most intrigue among plenty of West Ham fans who read it, as he explained: “Amadou recently signed a new contract and the club beat off competition from a host of top clubs including Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid. He regularly gets goals and is a really exciting player to watch.”

Promising talent
The 17-year-old has already shown glimpses of what he is able to do, having represented his country up to U17s level, while also breaking into the Hammers’ U23s setup.
Considering his tender age, he has already made a good impact in the final third in Premier League 2, scoring six goals and assisting another two in 14 appearances across this season and the last.
There is also a fearlessness in his game that can be seen when watching him play, as he can often be seen running at the opposition defence, while there is plenty of confidence in the way that he carries himself.
Did he really play for us?! No West Ham fan has managed to name all of these obscure Irons signings….
With all of this in mind, it should not be too surprising that there were big clubs looking to sign the winger, though it does offer another indicator of just how impressive he has been for Dmitri Halajko’s side.
The challenge for him now will be to get himself closer to David Moyes’ first-team squad, by following in the footsteps of Jeremy Ngakia, who has now played four Premier League matches.
There are, of course, no guarantees that Diallo will be able to make the step up, but he has certainly shown encouraging signs so far.
Meanwhile, FFC writers have given their verdict on whether Jeremy Ngakia can keep Ryan Fredericks out of the team.
