I've been watching videos of him and in every one of them he plays on the left.
So is he a RB or LB? He says he wants to play on the right in his interview...

No Dalot puns? No hashtag? Another shit announcement, what's even the point?

I have no idea how good he is.

I doubt many people on this forum have seen him play more than a handful of games.

But best of luck to the lad.

I hope he's buzzing.

I am!

Good luck. Picked the best manager to fulfill his potential. Mourinho sure knows how to develop young talent.

Big praise from the manager. Also a 6yr contract(more or less) :eek:. The club is showing Dalot of faith in this player.
Hopefully he does better than the last guy we gave a six year contract to!

Our Portuguese contingent on here seem to rate him very highly and think he is one of Europe’s best up and coming defenders that’s good enough for me.

We need De Ligt to partner Dalot

I place my trust in them and am very happy with this news. A decent right winger and left back before the start of next season, and we'll be in pretty good shape.

Brilliant news, hope to see him given a lot of game-time off the bench at first, and starting low-level cup games. Bleed him in slowly.

This was unexpected. He sure is a great prospect, but had barely played for Porto's first team yet

I cannot see him suddenly breaking into Man Utd first team, whereas with Ricardo leaving for Leicester he would have an open position this season in Porto. I think someone is being overly ambitious atm

Not sure if this was discussed earlier, but what are the chances that he may start or be an option on the right wing?

"Can Manchester United score? They always score"
Sorry to disappoint but his and his father's hunger is money. If some day he feels he needs a new bonus or another club comes sniffing with higher wages, then be prepared, he's not less mercenary than any.
Are you a Porto fan?

And United will compensate him well if he does well here.

We probably offer some of the best wages on football to the non-big name players. Unlike a Madrid for example where there is disparity between players.

This kid must be shortlisted amongst other fullbacks in his age group. To be called the best in his age group must be something special.

I only aware about his pace and technical driblling, seems like a good whipper of the ball too.

Get in Dalot, we all wish you the best of luck for your immense future.

The unveiling video is excellent too.

A message from the Glazers: "That's two signings now this summer, so that's your lot... or rather... that's Dalot."

19 millions?

I thought every player was a minimum of 50 millions to a PL club these days. :smirk:

Welcome to Old Trafford, hope you win dalot with us.
