MANCHESTER UNITED are ready to trigger a one-year extension with Diogo Dalot amid interest from two European powerhouses.
The Portuguese defender’s current deal at Old Trafford expires next summer having been signed by Jose Mourinho back in 2018 from Porto for £19m.
Under Erik ten Hag, the 23-year-old has cemented the right-back position ahead of the maligned Aaron Wan-Bissaka – starting all 12 of United’s Premier League games this season.
After coming close to leaving the club last summer, Dalot is now being monitored by both Barcelona and AC Milan in the hope of snatching him on a free next year.
But SunSport understands United are determined to keep hold of Dalot while contract negotiations continue – and will extend his stay until at least the end of the 2023/24 campaign.
