Dalot – “I’ll give everything for this club”

Diogo Dalot says he will “give everything” to Manchester United after completing his £19 million switch from FC Porto.

The 19-year-old, who made just seven senior appearances for Porto, has signed a five-year-contract at Old Trafford.

He becomes United’s second signing of the summer, after the Red Devils landed £52 million Brazil international Fred only days earlier.


Jose Mourinho has hailed Dalot as the “best young full-back in Europe”, describing him as “extremely talented young defender with all the qualities to quickly become a great player for this club.”

And the teenager, who is Mourinho’s first ever Portuguese signing at Old Trafford, says he hopes he can live up to such lofty expectations.

“I’m very excited for the [size and] dimension of this club and I hope to achieve great things here.” said the Portugal U21 international.

“I know that this is one of the best clubs in the world and it is unbelievable to be here and I hope to achieve great things.

“I will give everything for this club, for this shirt and, hopefully, help the club to win. That’s the most important thing.”
