Diogo Dalot signs Manchester United contract extension until 2028

Diogo Dalot has extended his Manchester United contract until 2028, with an option for a further year.

Dalot’s future at United looked uncertain when he was loaned out to AC Milan for the 2020-21 season, but he has impressed under Erik ten Hag this campaign and subsequently rewarded with a new contract as a result.

The right-back has earned 11 caps for Portugal and played 107 times for United since being brought to the club from Porto in 2018 by Jose Mourinho.

“Playing for Manchester United is one of the highest honours that you can have in football”, Dalot said upon signing the contract extension.

“We have shared some fantastic moments over the past five years, and I’ve grown so much and my passion for this incredible club has only increased since the day that I joined.

“As a group of players, we all feel like we are at the start of a special journey right now. I can assure you that I will dedicate myself relentlessly to helping this group to achieve our aims and make the fans proud of this team.

“That drive continues this week with everyone intensely focused on preparations for the FA Cup final.”
