MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester United winger Amad Diallo could miss the remainder of the Premier League season after suffering an ankle ligament injury in training.

The 22-year-old from the Ivory Coast has nine goals and seven assists and has been a bright spot for United in an otherwise poor season with Ruben Amorim's team languishing 13th in the league table ahead of Sunday's game against Tottenham Hotspur.
