Dalot, 24, has inked a new deal until 2028, with the option of an additional year. United signed the right-back from Porto for £19million in 2018 and he has played 107 times for the club, scoring three goals.
Dalot said: “Playing for Manchester United is one of the highest honours that you can have in football. We have shared some fantastic moments over the past five years, and I’ve grown so much and my passion for this incredible club has only increased since the day that I joined.

The United football director John Murtough added: "Diogo is an excellent defender, with a great combination of pace, strength and versatility.
