But according to the the club are already planning to allow him a temporary move elsewhere.
Diallo played eight times for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side last season, scoring in their Europa League tie against AC Milan.
But the Man Utd boss has a host of options in the attacking areas of his team, meaning Diallo's services may not be required for the upcoming campaign.
Anthony Martial, Dan James, Mason Greenwood, Edinson Cavani and new signing Jadon Sancho are all in contention for a starting berth.
Sancho's £74million arrival has added yet more firepower to Solskjaer's arsenal.
And he also has Marcus Rashford on the sidelines who will come back into the side once he has recovered from his shoulder injury.

Meanwhile in defence, United are expected to complete the signing of Real Madrid centre-back Raphael Varane imminently.
Speaking last week before Varane came out of isolation, Solskjaer gave an update on the situation.
He said: "The med with Raphael has to be done. He is isolating at the moment and had to wait for visas.
