Diogo Dalot claims that everyone at Manchester United feels as though they are "at the start of a special journey" now that they have extended their contracts through at least 2028.
The 24-year-old right back joined the team in 2018 after leaving Porto, and since then, he has made 107 appearances for the team across all competitions.
Dalot, who spent the 2020–21 season on loan at AC Milan, has now committed to Old Trafford for the next five years, with an additional season option.
The 11-cap Portugal international added, "Playing for Manchester United is one of the highest honors that you can have in football."
Over the past five years, we have experienced some wonderful experiences together, and from the day I joined, my love for this amazing club has only grown.We all believe that as a team of players, we are currently at the beginning of a unique journey.I can promise you that I'll work tirelessly to support this squad as we accomplish our goals and win over the supporters.
This week, everyone is utterly focused on getting ready for the FA Cup final, so that desire will continue.
Dalot had a fantastic start to the season under Erik ten Hag, but a much-improved Aaron Wan-Bissaka might play at right-back on Saturday in the FA Cup final.
Regardless of how the full-back performs this weekend against Manchester City, United football director John Murtough is impressed with his progress.
"Diogo is an excellent defender, with a great combination of pace, strength, and versatility," he claimed. Since joining the club in 2018, he has steadily grown and improved yearly.The way Diogo prepares himself each day to perform at his best is precisely what we all desire from a Manchester United player. His work ethic and professionalism are outstanding.
"We are thrilled that Diogo will continue to be a key member of the squad for the upcoming years. He has a strong mentality, high standards, and a great personality."
