As indicated by the latest transfer news from The Express, Manchester United could get a strong profit of £17m from the sale of Diogo Dalot. AC Milan and Real Madrid have shown interest in signing Dalot after he got back to United from his loan spell at AC Milan.
The Portuguese full-back spent the entire 2020/21 season on loan at the San Siro, having a good impact on Milan’s potential entry into the UEFA Champions League. While he might not have been the best player for them, he was able to show a decent performance up for the Rossoneri, scoring twice and laying on three assists.
Dalot was never a sure starter for United after the signing of Aaron Wan-Bissaka in 2019. The English right-back is truly outstanding in his position in terms of defending. He has likewise shown a great improvement in his attacking skills. With Dalot set to return now, it looks impossible that there will any change in Wan-Bissaka’s role.
But United could hope to take advantage of him as interest develops from other clubs. Dalot recently made his first senior appearance for Portugal as they were knocked out by Belgium.
AC Milan is trying to bring him back while Real Madrid has additionally shown interest to sign him. A deal for Dalot is probably going to land United a ransom amount of £17m in profit.
Dalot’s contract runs for two additional years however the odds of him staying at United seems very low. He is probably not going to dislodge Wan-Bissaka yet he has the ability to perform better. Selling him right now when his stocks are at the highest point may be a clever idea that United should exploit.
AC Milan will be more serious with their offer as they hope to add more strength to their defense following the departure of their star goalkeeper Donnarumma.
