Man United star Dalot reveals his target for 2021/22 season

Manchester United full-back Diogo Dalot has opened up about his loan spell at AC Milan and what he hopes to achieve in 2021/22.

Diogo Dalot has described his spell on loan at AC Milan last season as ‘perfect’ and hopes to improve his game in 2021/22.

The 22-year-old, who joined United from Porto in 2018 for €22 million, spent the previous campaign on loan at AC Milan. He made 33 appearances – just two less than he managed in two years at Old Trafford – to help the Rossoneri end an eight-year absence from the Champions League.

Given Dalot’s promising form at San Siro, Milan are reportedly keen to sign him for another season.

“It was perfect,” Dalot told United’s website on how his loan spell in Italy went.

“The goal for last season was to get minutes again, get my legs going. Be fit. And I had it.

“I think I was one of the only players in the [AC Milan] squad that was available for all the games during the season and for me that was a very good point as well besides of course the minutes and games I played, which were a lot.

“Like I said, it was perfect. I met very good people in the club, very good people in the city and it was fantastic. The chance to play in another fantastic league brought me some very good stuff, not just for football but for my life as well.”

As for his aims for 2021/22, the Portugal international said: “Keep developing. When I had a season like last season obviously the things start to get more demanding as well.

“I want to keep playing, I want to keep giving everything I have and improve. I know last season was fantastic but I can do even more.”
