TOP STORY: Madrid look to Dalot
Real Madrid are monitoring the situation of Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot, with the 23-year-old out of contract at end of the season and not expected to sign a new deal, according to the Mirror.
Blancos boss Carlo Ancelotti is looking to sign an experienced full-back next summer and his first choice is reportedly Manchester City‘s Joao Cancelo.
However, with the 28-year-old unlikely to depart the Premier League champions anytime soon, the Spanish side are now plotting a move for his Portugal teammate instead.
Dalot has impressed under Erik ten Hag this season and the Red Devils have the option to extend his current deal by a year. However, Dalot’s agent has suggested that he will not sign a contract extension at this moment in time.
With Barcelona also interested, it is reported that Man United will demand around £35 million to allow Dalot a move away from Old Trafford, which will place Real Madrid in a better position than their cash-strapped LaLiga rivals to acquire the full-back next summer.
