Senegal striker set for United debut

Mame Biram Diouf is set to make a dream debut for Manchester United in January after being granted a British work permit. The 22-year-old signed from Norwegian team Molde this year before returning to the club on loan. "He's been training with us and is looking very exciting," revealed United manager Sir Alex Ferguson on Wednesday. Diouf has scored 35 goals in 74 games for Molde, who are ex-United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's former club. He will not feature in the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations because Senegal failed to qualify.
