Diogo Dalot plays alongside the legendary Cristiano Roaldo in both club and national levels. Dalot received his first call up for Portugal during the UEFA Euro 2020 as a replacement for João Cancelo, who withdrew after testing positive for COVID-19. Since then he has earned fice caps.
Diogo Dalot mentioned he hopes his now club teammate Cristiano Ronaldo will stay at Manchester United for ‘many, many years’.
“I think the stats can speak for themselves,” he said.
“He’s a machine, like I like to call him. Inside of the pitch, outside of the pitch, the way he works, the way he drives himself every single day to perform like this, to give us these goals and these performances.”
“I think it’s a plus for this club and for the fans and, hopefully, we can stay with him for many, many years. I know he is not going to be here forever but I’m sure that he will play football for a few more years yet.”
“I’m sure that he is going to do everything he can to play until the last strength that he has but it’s going to be up to him. We just need to enjoy him while he’s here.”
