Amad has called his Manchester United teammate Bruno Fernandes a "magician" after the Portuguese ace secured all three points for his side against Aston Villa on Sunday.
Fernandes capitalised on some sloppy goalkeeping from Emiliano Martinez to fire home in the 39th minute of United's clash with Villa. The strike proved to be the only goal of the game, though Erik ten Hag's men were forced to weather a late storm as the visitors pushed to extend their unbeaten run to 11 games.
Fernandes and Amad could be playing alongside each other next season, with MEN Sport understanding Ten Hag is open to the idea of including the Ivory Coast youngster in his first-team plans next term after impressing on loan at Sunderland.
